sc400 subwoofer removal HELP!!!!!!!
ok so ive unbolted everything and have taken out all the panels but when i go to pull the sub out it wont budge, what do i do?
all answers welcome
all answers welcome
Pull harder. The foam gasket on the bottom of the sub is the only thing holding it in if you have removed all the bolts. Try using a screw driver or panel removal tool and carefully pry around the edge the sub and it should come free.

I'm Going to make an assumption here and "assume" that you used a Kicker Comp 10" as your replacement.
The Kicker Comp (Not Comp VR), has a VAS of 2.27 for the 10". That will work (in theory) for an IB setup in the SC since the trunk is larger than 2.27 cubic feet.
If you are going with a Kicker 12" Comp, then you need more than 4.51 cubic feet of trunk. I feel confident in saying that it should be larger than that (although I have not personally measured it), a few additions to the trunk (luggage + golf clubs + etc) could reduce your usable volume effectively critically dampening the driver causing an overheating condition.
I'm Just posting this as a worst case scenario. Odds are that you will never encounter this problem. But, since this is what I do for a living I like to advise people of all scenarios.

While I agree with you that giving the possibilities is good, it's not really an assumption that the trunk is more than 4.51 cu ft, which is essentially 18 x 18 x 24. You could probably put about 8 boxes that size in the trunk of the car! Even if you have golf clubs and luggage in there, you're not going to fill it up beyond where the lip of the trunk is, and with the indentations and space above the lip level, given that it may only be 3", but it's also about 2.5 feet in depth and 4 feet wide, that's still 2.5 cu ft, of which you aren't going to be fill every crevice in the trunk. This is one of the things that makes IB subs so attractive - unless you fill the trunk area with bean bag chairs that mold to whatever shape they are put into, you're usually pretty good in terms of available volume.
