I honestly have no clue on the model...I know that they are Hifonic HiFi subs but exactly model is a no go. I got them installed at some side of the road shop called PnR

I did some searching on google images for ideas and I actually like the way the factory does their "upgraded sound" package and adding the subs to the sides of the rear.

Is there a reason you want a sealed box? a jeep probably has a decent amount of room, and a bigger, ported box would be more efficient (read cleaner and louder)
Either way, make the box as big as you can tolerate. At least 1.5-2 cubic feet for each sub is optimal, but if you can fit more and are willing to pay for the extra wood then by all means, go for it.

sealed box for 2 10's, carpeted, $90 custom fit you car...... if looking for space saving solution, then fiberglass form fitted box is way to go, need to see vechile to get idea of what and where it could fit.

unless you're gonna take your backseat out...it's near impossible to get a 12 in there. A single 10 in a down firing box behind the rear seat is the way to go. Or what I did, for security purposes and to keep it out of the elements, I fiberglassed a box flush into the footwell behind the driver seat with an up firing 8.

I may have found a way to get subs into a jeep decently. Pioneer Shallow mount subs =)

They sound like shit, don't waste your money. Actually, pretty much anything in a Jeep is going to sound like shit unfortunatley...they're not exactly sound system friendly. But those Pioneers are the bottom of the barrel. You need to go with a small, powerful sub and squeeze as much air space out of the box as possible.
