can you get 3 12's in a camaro convertible trunk???

I am thinking of getting one of those boxes that sit in the well area that most people have in my 91 rs. knowing that most of the sound will get lost when the top is down, i was wondering would 3 12's fit in one of those boxes?? I really dont want to eliminate my back seat either, so i was hopeing to get my bass from the trunk area.

you can fit three back there. Two in the sunk in part and one on the deck. You would need to go with a speaker that requires a small amount of volume air space such as JL Audio. It will take up your entire rear and add about 100lbs to the car. I have two 10" subs in the sunk in part and they are plenty. Two 12's with the right amp will be plenty the make your ear drums itch, especally because of the bass reflex from your back glass hatch. Point them directly up towards the hatch.

My .02? Rip out the back seats! I mean can you honestly fit anyone back there anyway? Put your box where your seats use to be, than use the wall in the well for an amp, it fits perfectly there, trust me I know you can get two three hundred amps there with no problem. Also if you have a multi disc changer, stick it in the lock box, makes everything work perfectly. Just my .02 and what I am doing.
