Need to fit a large speaker box

[evlwevl]

How do I pull off the left and right rear plastic trunk panels on my 2000? I'm going to put in a large sub box and I need to see if it can fit in without those in place. Then I can cut into them and scoot the box back in place against the notches.
Thanks

hot crackers! how big of a box are you using?

its one of those 12" Xplods I got from circuit city. It fits side to side perfectly I just need to to scoot it back a few inches but the side plastic panels get in the way cause they round out. Im going to buy some spares and notch them

how many 12"s are you using? the trunk is 32" wide.

using 2 12s. The box is 32" wide, its just hitting the corners of the plastic panels towards the rear. I could just build a box that fits, but Im sure this box is tuned to those speakers or at least I hope it is.

Did you already purchase this system or are you thinking about it? I bet you could do much better (sound quality and SPL wise) for the money. Please don't buy that stuff it's horribly over priced.

You should build a custom box that is taylored to the required specs for the subs. It will fit perfect and will sound a million times better.

I'm assuming that this is the box you are talking about?

If that's the one then it wont work for you. The box has a port on the left side of the box that needs to have space so air can move in and out.
