I had a JL stealthbox in my other car and love it. If I didn't already have my system installed, this would be a no brainer for me. Does anyone know how much it costs?

I'm sure its a great piece, if you're not into the DIY stuff, and you don't need a showy glass set up, this is also a no brainer for me, very clean.

I'm pretty sure any authorized JL dealer can order you one... The install looks pretty easy too. JL only rates it a 1 out of 5 for difficulty.

James at Super Autobacs made it for me, if we can get enough interest we might have some molds made up to mass produce the box should be alot cheaper then the Jl box and you would have your choice in vinyl and woofer. Sorry if i jacked the thred, you can check my install at https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=242327
