This is the best location for the sub for SQ guys. Nothing between your ears and the sub = 100% best sound quality.

to 1skcvc, why the dynamat in the trunk? was it from a previous setup? I have absolutely no rattles inside and out, ALL the sound stays in the cabin for me.

Are the boxes built to sub spec? Looks a bit small from the pictures. Those are wonderful subs.

Yep, JL recommends a .625 cubic foot sealed box for the 10w6v2.
