First of all you don't need to increase the size of your font.

Now to help you out, you'll be able to squeeze your box onto the little hump in the back of the trunk if you remove your factory subwoofer.

Nothing wrong with being creative in the writing...

As for a box, if you can get someone to build you one. Have someone cutout the rear deck where the old woofer was to hold a 12" woofer, but you're better off dropping to a bad *** 10" woofer. Drop either woofer size in, build a box thats flush and attached to the bottom of the rear deck and you're good to go. The box will only be dropping down like 8"-10" (depending on what sub you use) so you have ALL of the floor of your trunk available

My bad about the font I already took out the stock subwoofer out. Is there any pre made enclosure online where I can just buy cause speaker shop in my area are charging way to much for a custom box to fit in that back area

i purchased that box from the seller for a sealed single 12. loved it. fits perfect, even with the factory sub in place. the only reason I took it out, is because I decided it would be best for my air stuff to go in that spot. if anyone in houston, tx is looking for one, I have one for sale.

Are you happy with the sound? I am a huge fan of a 10 inch driver, more punch IMO.
