Our box is lined with carpet where it sits in the spare, there should be no rattling. If you have a carpet over the subwoofers, some subwoofers will make noise, not all but some will. We do have the option to get a Trunk Carpet with a cutout for the subwoofer.

Tell Cory to stay on top of the 370 sport spare issue I still haven't made mine yet.

Still really can't believe no one has made one of these, but there is a ton of suspension and performance parts.

Thats a nice box but I need one with .6 cf of air space for a Kenwood 10in sub I have.

I made my own spare-tire box. I posted about it here. Its strong enough to stand on, and you cant even tell I have anything installed. The amps are in the forward area in front of the spare tire. The subwoofer is a Pioneer Flat series. The newer Pioners are IB Flat series and should also work. This is a 10" subwoofer being powered by a Hifonics Thor Generation X (Zed Audio) 125w X 2 amp (400x1 bridged).

Yeah the 10in Pioneer subs only need .3-.4 cf the kenwood I have requires .6 at a minimum,I can build mine with fiberglass (I've done it before)I'm trying to see if anybody makes one like Wicked cas,b/c I don't have time to do it.

That box looks awful small for .5 cf, thats why I will use fiberglass if I can't get someone to build it by spring.

Still hoping someone makes one soon.
