subs facing back of the trunk so i don't kill the people in the back seats and I can see them thump with the trunk open. The strut bas branches into a ">" and on the right another "<" so the bar looks like this.. ">----<" so I will have to made it a few inches wider as I get to the outside of the box. buto ther than that, just a standard sloping box so my subs are not at a 90* angle with the trunk but instead have a tiny upward slant pointing towards the people outside, not their crotches.
Thanks for helping again!

well, your 1/2 right. If i put the box infront of the strut bar, ppl will not be able to see it anyway and its too big to go behind the bar. I think if i put it over the strut bar with will SAVE more trunk space than if i went infront of it. what do u think? i hope i'm doing this the best way i can. LMK if u have ideas bene.

ok, the bar is exactly 1 inch in diameter. The notch in the bottom will have to be exactly 3+1/2inches up into the box with atleast 1inch at the top to fit the bar, might need 1+1/2 inches.
The trunk length is 38inches long so the box will need to be 38inches long with 13+1/2 inches from the top of the trunk until u hit the bar, but that doesn't really matter b/c the notch will be on the bottom of the box.
From the far back of my trunk to where u hit the strut bar is 3 inches, so the notch will need to start exactly 3 inches from the back of the box. Also, the back of the trunk almost startsto slope inward about 5 degrees so i might need to make the back of the box slanted so it will fit up againstthe backside tighter.
LMK if that helped any and I think I have a good idea now of what my dimensions are. what the best materials to use when doing this?

quick question... for the remote amp turn on, I would need some kind of switch right? do I need to pick one up and can I custom mount it somewhere?
