Where can i get a good box?thanks Before anybody gives you any advice, go measure your trunk and tell us what are your max dimensions for an enclosure (height x width x depth). Second yeah an 18" does look cool if it sounds good too, if your doing it just for looks and not performance then I wouldnt do it but it is up to you and your money. The best bet is to see what we can fit in your trunk and go from there, a 15" in the optimal box will sound better than an 18" in a cramped box.Yes you are going to need to upgrade your electrical or you wont have the power to get your amp going.

The good question is what electrical upgrades do you have in the car (big 3 wiring, extra batteries, ho alternator)? Another question is what system do you have now so we can determine a nice upgrade for you?
