4 15s? That's massive. You're almost definitely gonna have to lose your rear seats.. I don't have any personal insight as I haven't doen a build that big, but I would advise searching through forums to find writeups about this setup in just about any hatchback and see if you can take ideas from there..

Then again, there might be someone on this forum that's put four 15s in their PT.. but I really doubt it.

If you want advice on enclosures check out Steve Meade Designs (SMD)
On average a 15 requires 3 cubic ft of air space. So getting 12 cu. ft. in a cruiser is going to be tricky. If you are on steve meades site or ptcrew hit up a guy that goes by ptcary he has 8 12s in his cruiser. He should be able to give you some advice.

I would say you most likely will fill the entire rear hatch area. Building a box is simple, just fill the space. Use 3/4" MDF and brace the hell out of it. You will need massive power from the battery, should put in a 0 awg or a 4/0 awg from the battery for sure.

Might I ask why you would do such a thing? 1 10" in a sealed box on 200W is like 4x more bass than anyone ever needs, but then again - I'm a bit jaded (SQ guy), so go wild.

I've got two 12" Bazooka subs in a pretty big box. I could easily stack two of them together. Have you thought about two boxes of two each stacked on top of each other? You would lose any and all rear cargo/trunk space.
