I have to agree with you there. I talked to Nazar and the prices for the sub and amp make up for the cost of the box. All together it seems to be a reall good package.

Do you know if you're getting any installation instructions, wiring, fuse block, etc.?

Post back with a self-install review when you're done. Or, even better, post back with pictures of the installation process.
Ok will do.

Really, the box isn't that expensive when you compare the price to your local shop's. It's about the same price, but Nazar's will probably fit better since he has a premade mold and has made so many, also there won't be any mess in your car as there would if somebody was molding it into your car.

Could you tell how easy it is to remove (i.e. for AutoX/Track)?
I am pretty sure that it comes out easily if you need to remove it. You should just ask Nazar. If you PM him he will get back to you with whatever info you need.

Hey whats guys, Finally got back from Wicked CAS. It was great! It was a 2 day install and it looks great. It took alittle longer than expected because everything Nazar and Justin were showing me I wanted installed. They are really cool guys, very knowledgeable, and plus I got a steak dinner from them too, haha. Anyway, the install is awesome, I'll post pics as soon as I get my car cleaned.

WOW! That system looks awesome. A group of us are planning to get together for lunch in the Stamford area Dec. 11th. If you're available and can join us, I'd love to check out your system in person. I'll let you know the plans of our get-together as soon as they are all ironed out.

Sure, I can give a rundown of everything I had installed. Kenwood 7015 Headunit, All Focal on the inside 165 K2P in the front and I'm pretty sure Focal 165w separates in the back. JL Audio 1000/1 and 450/4 amps, and finally 3 10" JL Audio W6's.

Thanx for all the interest.

The side box is $399.95 + Shipping. We are now doing the side box Vinyl Included. $50 Value Free. When you purchase a

It will only work with the 10w3V2 JL sub. It fits very tight.
Sub extra unless you allready have one.

We are expecting the new W1 JL Subs to work in this enclosure when they come out.

Wonder if wickedcas can make an encloser for each of the slots behind the seats that will allow you to use jl audio and not worry about it not being sealed.
I want the factory look.
I seen someone that had a setup something like that build from fiberglass.

It is approx .45 We use polyfill to get a nother 10%. With Clean power like the JL 250/1 That has a lot of control over the sub it will perform very well. (Use the JL subsonic filter at 25-30HZ) It is tight in there. The box is very snappy, 10w0 will fit But do not reccomend it for space in there.

I know you recommmend the JL 10W3V2 for this box, but........

Would something like the Memphis 15-MC104 fit in this box? It is a 10", only needs .5 cu.ft. of airspace, and has a smaller (5") mounting depth than the 10W3V2 (according to memphis and JL's info). Any reasons I am missing why something like this wouldn't work out?

It could work, I have never tried it. But We are a Memphis dealer I will be happy to check the dimensions and see if it is close. It is all about physical dimension of the magnet structure. If it fits sounds like a winner.
