Your gonna hafta build your own box to fit in the rear well, with an angled top, wide enough to fit your 15" sub in to.

Do you have plans for that? Sounds like quite the job lol. Thanks for the reply.

Use the

feature here on TGO & you'll find TONS of info. Not much chance of you not finding your answer already here, short of things like new items or technologies.

TGO has been here, in this latest creation, for about 13 yrs. It is much older, but had much less info & wasn't kept up very well, by it's owner. So Thirdgen.Org was created.

Youp gotta build your own box. But at the end of the day it will be cheaper than having a custom box made at your local shop. Not mention not alot of people put 15" subs in camaro's. Good luck

This was a buddy of mine who put 2 18s in his bird. It will definitely work but YOU will need to get creative with the box and placement of the subs.

tons of these on ebay. It might not have enough airspace for your kickers though. although it says for 84-92, I am pretty sure it really fits from 82-92

First, figure out how much air you need for the Kickers.

You may discover that you don't have enough.

The ebay box only gives 1.8 cu.ft. per side.

You're not going to get much more than that.

Make sure to Dynamat....a lot.

this may be over-simplifying things here but couldn't you just get a 12" speaker box and cut the holes bigger to fit 15" subs?

Not really. 15s need more airspace than 12s therefore the box needs to be bigger. most of the 12 boxes arent big enough to even shoehorn the 15s in.
