Sub enclosure for G37 sedan

Can anyone recommend a sub enclosure for a 2009 G37 sedan?

I know that Boxology offers one, but I think I think $300+ is too expensive for an enclosure. I checked with Zenclosures who has a more palatable price of ~$130, but they told me that they don't have one for my model sedan yet.

I want to install an 8" or 10" in the trunk, but want the trunk to still be usable. I would prefer not to use the spare tire well either.

Are there any other options?

Are they not in business anymore?? I guess that leaves me with ZERO options that I am aware of then.

Anyone else care to chime in?

I actually have a ZenEnclosure box that I ported from my G35 Sedan into my G37. It fits like a charm. It still has MINOR spaces on the side, but again I can careless. I can post pictures later on to give you an idea.

Im actually installing one tomorrow.
Its $200 from Crutchfield with a free wiring kit (power wire, ground, terminals, rca, etc) and free shipping.
Full warranty.


I know its only 200 watts but I have decent expectations.

In my G35 I had a Tc sounds LMS-R with a nine.1 driving it.

Not gonna go that far with the G37

I had the installer build a custom enclosure for a Hertz 10" sub. It's in the driver's side rear quarter of the trunk.

He charged me $300 which is a bit pricy but I think it's worth it because the dimensions are tuned to the sub and not some random one size fits all enclosure.

That looks like a much easier box to build. Rather than contouring the box to the wheel well, they just went in front of it. It may eat up a bit more space, but it may be something I could do myself.

Still waiting and looking forward to InfiniteSmoke's zenclosure pics though!!
