    I have put in Racesport gen3 leds I'm the process of doing a custom audio overhaul which will include Hybrid audio unity 6x9 mid bass, unity 3 inch mid driver in the dash and fiberglassing tweets in pilar soundeading all the doors, floors, and headliner and I will be using a helix processor to retain the factory radio and as far as subs I might make custom brackets to move rear seat foward a few inches to get a full size sub in there or I might just go with a pair of jl tw5 or tw3 and it will all be powered by jl audio HD amps or I might try out the new hybrid amps
    I could only imagine, the jl stealth box sounds pretty bad for the price

    why would a box sound bad if it has the specified cubic ft that a sub requires?

    Probably formaldehyde ridden, cheap wood stapled and incorrectly or not braced at all.

    VS 13 ply Baltic Burch, glued and screwed; plus hardwood bracing, dampening etc.

    "hand-laid fiberglass", not bad.

    its $130. tacomaworld will eat it up. i think jl's box is priced at $600 so id imagine there's a market for it. just brace it to the back with the 2 factory rivets that hold the plastic cubby in and use a L bracket.

    the 300 dollar JL box with 8" sub fits behind the rear passenger seat.
