      you'll need free-air subs to do that, not ones that require certain airspace. marine speakers are fairly often free-air.

        most subs can play free air if the amp is setup right. u have to set the filters where the sub wont play too low. i think 8's are too small to do free air. free kinda speaks of 18's and 15's mostly..... because they usually play lower!

                well i am thinking of two 8s bcuz i want to keep as much trunk space as possible. and the 8s can be covered with the stock 6.5 rear deck covers once modified... at least this is what i am thinkin

                  well on the rear deck on the truck i don't think the'll bump nice because the Truck is acting like a subwoofer box i guess..and that's WAYYYYY too much space..

                  my 2 12's box is almost as big as my whole trunk..

                  but its worth it..it bumps NICE

                    space efficiency wise, your idea is better, but sound and show-off wise u should get bigger ones like 10+

                        4 8's 143.0 dbs on the dash..... nuff said....

                        not tomention i can play rock techno rap jazz blues .... anything really.

                        8's can do the same as 10'a and 12's with less space .... when u get into 15's and 18's ur talking a big difference in ranges as far notes that can be played.

                        what 8's were u thinking about geting???? i have hands on Digital designs and memphis's 8's and both have please me and can handle way more power then they need.

                          well the 8s i wanted are RockFord Fosgate P2. i was thinking about the moiunng again. it was mentioned earlier that, it would sound to great just sitting on the rear deck using the trunk as the enclosure, not in those exact works but similar. i am thinking of creating small ported enclosures that will hang through the rear deck and eleminate the trunk bars.

                          any opinions??...

                              92accord has the right idea. I was thinkin the something like that. A small enclosure you could bolt to the rear deck from inside the trunk.
