It's better if you do a search, I don't remember what size the OEM sub is.

P.S. It's very hard to get a free air sub these days. The RF that I installed came with instructions on how to build a box for it. I mounted the box I built for it to the bottom part of the rear deck. looks nice and neat, no rattle no weigh-down. even used the old stock speaker cover for it.

The sub is not covered, i put the stock sub speaker cover back over but I couldn't get it to stay, as i had broken it a bit in the removal process, but there's no sun damage that i know of.
