20L, where abouts?

Only reason I ask is I thought you mentioned kicks, and the last time I did a purely kick mounted enclosure the best I could get was around 2.5L (this was in the laser, which had a quite spacious kick area).

If you have another area you can get them in with that much volume available then that would be great. 20L may be a little overkill if anything - 10L (or even 8L) should be more then enough.

Bigger for an enclosure isn't always better for a given situation. :)

Heya,

Well, in the HQ, there is a large port coming in from outside the car that lets in air from the outside. It is on both extremeties of the dash.
I am going to trim those shorter, so it will allow me to put in a larger enclosure going upwards from the kick.

Not sure exactly on the room, maybe 15l, maybe more, maybe less, but there is alot of free space under that dash :)

I reacon I will aim for around 15L, that way, I can always take a bit of volume away if need be.
