This sealed enclosure, which is custom-designed for the S, contains a beefy 10" JL Audio sub that fires up from the bottom of the trunk. The only downside is that you'll need to find a new spot for the factory jack and tool kit.

Take special care not to puncture your subwoofer I have done this before and it is both expensive and frustrating — protect the subwoofer surround and cone material with your hand - as a bandage is less expensive than a new speaker.

Step 7 — Reconnect the speaker wire to the speaker terminals on the enclosure, place the enclosure back into place and use the remaining hardware to secure the enclosure to the car. With the enclosure in place you first slide on the rubber washer, flat washer and then the nylon lock-nut. Tighten the lock-nut until the enclosure is held firmly in place.
Slowly close the trunk lid carefully checking to make sure that the trunk lid hinge clears the enclosure. Step 8 — With the enclosure mounted in place it is time to install the subwoofer. Connect the speaker wire inside the enclosure to the proper terminals on your subwoofer.
