Default Drop in IB/Free air 10 for the sc300

I am trying to find a new sub woofer. I currently have a crucial 10 inch sub with about 250 watts rms handling. It is in the stock location of my sc300 with a custom mount and sounds great. The only problem is that it wasnt designed to be slim so to not hit the gas tank it has to be mounted a little high up making the sub woofer cover not fit and leaving a big hole in the rear deck.

I looked a while ago but there weren't many free air subs or subs that would work in that location well that were slim enough.

Does anyone have a recommendation of a sub that is slim enough to drop in there that doesn't need to be enclosed?

Look for slim subs with a Qts of .5 or higher. The higher xmax the better.

IB and free air are just marketing terms.

Then this will work. The xmax is too low for my liking but you can't get much out of a shallow mount sub.
