Thanks for your interest.......Back once again is the latest design of my tacoma stealth box..........this was once sold (2002-2004) as just the top plate part with an infinite baffle subwoofer.......the design has evolved to the aperiodic design concept , ( SEE AUDIO REFERENCES BELOW , for explanation )..........using the existing storage compartment , packed with poly-fill ,*in combination with the "tuned" aperiodic vent/enclosure (mounted on box)*to achieve "flat" frequency response and great transient response......ideal "sealed box" results...........the enclosure*(aperiodic vent) has been tuned using*dayton audio's "woofer tester3" software/interface......to the "desired" Qtc of (.8)......which by most speaker designers is considered the optimum closed box system "Q"......not only does the speaker system have a custom professional look , it functions perfectly , the design goal here is quality* , not quanity.........this system will not have the output of a (2) 12 box but it outputs more than enough bass to easily keep up with*the other "fullrange" speakers mounted in the doors and rear, for an accurate soundstage.*Both sound quality and accuracy are top notch or your money back , for an 8 inch subwoofer this sub*kicks and sounds great , it adds the very much needed low end without a huge box taking up valuable space*.....................its named the stealth box because you can fold down the jump seat*and its out of sight , with no loss of rear cabin area and no interference because the*woofer sits recessed into enclosure for a smooth look.............Enclosure does not need to be screwed down and sits snuggly into the compartment , with a foam gasket helping seal and seat the enclosure........installation is very simple.......jack tools should be relocated from passenger side*compartment to the smaller "jack" compartment , remove passenger side*lid/cover and the black trim ring/fasteners ,*pack compartment with polyfill (supplied , as shipping protection)*, and hook*up an amplifier..............woofer is carefully selected for this*design based on its elec.mech specs as well as physical dim.*, not any speaker can*be used for this design and the enclosure is not available by itself........because performance and fit could not be gauranteed comes with manual & installation instructions , enclosure & pre-mounted woofer fits tacoma extended cab** 1995 thru 2004
