Subwoofer Plate?

I was looking at this thread https://www.thirdgen.org/messgboard/...ML/001322.html and was wondering if you can buy plates like this or if you have to make them. If you can buy them, who sells them? I want to have room for my T-Tops.

Thanks!
Mark

I've seen them for sale in various places for about $40. Your local car stereo shop should be able to get/make you one for about that much.

After reading a heated thread, I realized something I didn't think about, would a tube with a 10" sub take up less space? I don't need loud, I just want clear.

It is pretty easy to just make one. The measuring is the hardest part about it.

Yeah, a tube would take up less space. You can also fit a box for a single sub or a pair of small-box subs in the same amount of space that a plate takes up.

Jim85IROC,
Do you make boxes, tubes and whatnot for mailorder? Is that the link for you on your signature? If so, let me know, I want to order something for my 86 IROC. I would do it myself but A)I work 12 hour days in the military then I have my "Honeydo's" to take care of B)I don't know didly about this stuff (except what subwoofers I have). Thanks,
Mark

I sell boxes, but not tubes or plates. go to http://iroc.fbody.com/subwoofer.html to see what I have, and email me with any questions.
