You might be a Redneck if you use your leftover gutters for a speaker box port...

If your not sure on a box type just ask someone to design one for you here on the forum but like was said you'll wanna pick the gear first them make a box accordingly.

^^ You can do something like that, but in the mid 90s sables the back seats don't fold down so you'd have to remove them outright. If you wanna keep them then do sub(s)/port(s) facing towards the trunk, done it in a couple sable/taurus from that certain model. Saw a 15" AQ HD3 off 1500w do a 143.? @ dash with the seats still in place, when we took them out gained over a full db with the same setup.

15" AQ HDC3 off AQ 2200D would be a nice little daily setup, plus you'd have plenty left over for an extra batt, wiring, and for box materials. With a Yellow Top under hood and big 3 upgrade only, off 1500w daily a 94 Taurus(3.8l V6 model) had very minimal dimming.

yeah i want to remove the back seat entirely i wanted to use a board on the bottom part of the seat to mount my amp and compasitor(sp?) to . maybe use some contact cement and a novilty fabric and dresss it up a little

Sell the capacitor, it's doing more harm to your electrical system than good. Use the money to do the big 3 upgrade and extra batt in back instead. The easiest way to apply carpeting/fabric to enclosures IMO is 3M Super 77, pretty cheap and extremely effective.

ok so ditch the capacitor.... do carpeted enclosures look pretty good or is glassing the way to go?

big three upgrade is replacing these cables

1. Alt output to battery positive.

2. Battery negative to chassis.

3. Chassis to engine block.

Ok i need 2 things now can anyone point me in the direction of a amp that will push 1200 watts rms at the Ohm spec for those Aq subs? also can someone make me a box design ?

according to my calculations i could make a 15 cube net box would that be too large?

Audioque has a GREAT amp called the AQ1200D, it puts out a little over 1200 and right now they're only $229!!!! Its stable down to 1 ohm and puts out clean power!! My buddy just ordered him one!!
