Looking for a recommendation for a woofer.

[Scott Selleh 0]

This will be my first time trying to do anything other than just straight swapping speaker for speaker.  I have a '96 Jeep Cherokee Sport that i would like to stick a woofer in the "cubby hole" similar to this http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f11/write-up-97186/ .

 

Except that i would like to avoid spray foam and just fiberglass the cavity.  Is this feasible? Would it last? Also I would like to 'glass a replacement panel for the car instead of just hack up the original and hide the woofer.

 

This is a Daily beater vehicle until i get around to finishing my classic car... and will probably remain a daily vehicle even after that.

 

I was originally looking at SoundQubed's HDS210 and matching amp kit (especially now that they announced their BF Deals), but i think the woofer will be too deep for making it fit ~ flush.  I have around 5" from the vertical plane to the sheet metal, I'm willing to bring just the woofer out but i need to keep cargo space (i know a box facing the hatch would be better).  I think using the foam method they get ~1.1 cubic feet, and if i take just the easy to get space (and make it flush) looking at ~.6 cubic feet.

 

 

Also I being in the military where my paycheck comes from everyones taxes, i would like to buy USA, as a way to give back, and not break the bank for daily stuff.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice you guys have

 

Scott.

Could you use deadner instead of foam?

Would deadner be able to seal the area off?

thats pretty ghetto. best to fiberglass an enclosure rather than turn the cavity in the enclosure.
