Cerwin Vega spare tire subwoofer

Personally with a plastic shell I can't see it holding a candle to something like the wicked box or even a custom enclosure. Better then the bose I would imagine yes. Going to install on in the wife's FX35 and see what it's like.

Hey Matt,
It's actually in an aluminum shell and is heavy duty. It's nothing like the cheap plastic piece of crap Bose. I think you're going to be pleasantly surprised at how well it works.

Hows the rattling sitting directly on the spare tire?

It come's with a couple of extra bolts and bolts down tight against the spare tire the same as the Bose sub. There's no rattling at all.

Is this sub compatible with the stock Bose head unit and amp? In other words, can you just remove the Bose sub and replace it with the Cerwin Vega sub without need to modify the amp, wiring, etc.?

No. You need to run a #8 power wire to the new sub and you'll want to run the sub speaker wire from the head unit directly to the new sub.
