let me rephrase it also yes... that would be me.

I was pulling on your leg there. yes I made a fiberglass box for (2) 8" subs. No I do not have pics & it was sold with my 01 le cruiser.
I used masonite & foam board to mock up the box. Then I glassed the inside. After the glass was hard enough, I sanded the edge flat & mounted a custom baffle board that held the 8's. then I glass all the edges & filled any voids with bondo.

I mounted it behind the stock panel (pocket removed). cut the opening a tad larger for clearance. made a grill out of plexiglass covered with foam & stretch knit. fastened that with counter sunk hidden bolts & nuts. After final trim work, it looked damn close to factory or what factory should have looked like.

BTW, I also refabbed the panel mounting bracket & made a cutout for the wiring harness in the back of the enclosure. There is enough space for a 10" if you do not get a woofer thats too deep. The *" subs I used, I had to overlap the lip of the baskets to get them to fit properly.
