Kevin M Posted November 13, 2013 Report Share Posted November 13, 2013 Always nice to see another Malibu build. Thought about doing a trunk build in mine before I went to an IB setup. I don't have a back seat either. Are you going to seal it off? 2005 Ford Focus zx4 AMT's and Planars 18" Infinite baffle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
