Default What's supposed to be in here?

I just bought this Z not too long ago. The owner told me this was done by the previous owner, he wasn't sure about it. There used to be a system down there, two speaker cut outs and I see some wiring.

I'm just wondering, is there something I can put there so the carpet won't fall through? I'm looking into getting a sub and an amp, is there a sub box I can buy that'll fit that hole? Or should I get one custom built? (I've never built a box before so I don't really want to attempt it :\

Here's what I'm talking about:

The big hole where my umbrella and jump cables are.

Ah, sorry guys. My post was moved and I guess it got messed up somehow. Anyway, I'm wondering what this space in my trunk is. One of the previous owners had a system installed here (note the two speaker cut outs) and I'm wondering if I can get a box to fit into there. I'm looking to install a single 10" sub probably. Would I need a custom box? If not, should I get a regular box? Would I need to cover that hole up?

That area was just filled with foam pieces when new. if you want to fit a box inside, you will probably have to go custom. There are pre-made boxes that will sit above that area out there, and cover the holes in the carpet.

Those are 8's though.. I dont know why he would have put a 6.5" mid right there.. that doesnt seem like it would really do anything.. Especially when he could have made a box just like this one with the 8's.

Nissan should be able to order it for you. Might want to put out a WTB in the for sale section and see if anyone is getting rid of theirs.

With proper box design, you get more air moving on a pair of 8's than a single 10. Why would you not like that?
