Jeff - you are so The Man. Thanks for doing the simple, definitive post on this.

If I were anywhere near your slice of the country, you guys would be doing my install, no questions asked...

We really do appreciate you as well!!! If you plugged the holes in the bottom of the wheel well for the lug nuts, and dropped a baffle in, that wedged on the first real lip inside the well about an inch or so down, with the Pioneer thinline 10", you still would not get a tight enough seal for that to work? They also make an 8" in this model that does free-air as well. I hope an aftermarket enclosure that drops in this space comes available sometime soon.

You cant do Free air in a hatchback without venting the subs outside of the car. And you would need to fiberglass the inside of the tire in order to seal it the right way!
