Default Prefab sub box that'll fit my gs430 on the raised floor?

So i bought a prefab single 12" subwoofer box and realized that the space restrictions on the 2gs trunk sucks. I want the box to fit under the stock sub area, where the raised floor is. Anyone know where i could get one? I know building my own is the best option but i would rather not.

yeah bestbuy does sell q-logic but according to q-logics webpage they dont offer one for the gs series...just the es series (and i think those are JUST kick panels)

sakataj- we are talking about a sub box that fits in the trunk in the raised section closest to the back seat right? if so the box in question is not a custon box for the gs. it is a single 12" bandpass box that is not ported. it is about 16-18" hight x 13-15" wide that fits perfectly in the raised section of the trunk. it only takes up about a 1/3 of the reaises section. i would serch q-logics boxes. i just had surgury on my foot so i am unable to take pics of it at this time, and i am not very good at uploading pics on this forum (i need a tutorial). i will describe it for you though: i mentioned the roughly the size of the box, it is black with a grey ring around the hole where the sub goes and a grey q-logic badge in the lower right corner. i hope this helps. if it is still kinda vauge pm your email and i will hoop you up with pics ( i can send them via email no prob haha)

i bought a generic one for the gs4 a while back fit perfect but had to do a little modification so that i could increase trunk space. basically cut the back to make it more shallow. I believe it is made by a company called ASC.

i have a generic sealed box for 2 12's that i found at my local stereo shop that fits PERFECTLY on the step, i had to remove the factory sub (good idea with aftermarket subs anyway), but after that it slid right in and is almost flush with the step and looks great! still has plenty of trunk space as well
