i bolted a 10" sub box to the cross beam behind the back seat that holds the petrol tank in place. it faces the driver/passenger and sounds GOOD!
b4 anyone tries to argue i tried it in the boot, all angles etc, nothing sounds even remotely as good as this!!
its fat, ive emailed adam the pic but its not up yet |

The fact that you securely fixed it to the cars body might have something to do with the fact it sounds better, although having it in the same space as the occupants will effect the spl (sound pressure level) in the cabin. This means subs in a wagon/van will always sound better than a sedan with the same gear in the boot. However, low frequency, bass notes are omni-directional, means you can't tell where they're coming from, so having them in the boot, behind the tank should be no problem.
