Maximum Trunk Dimension

Ok, I asked this question a couple of days ago, but no one could answer it. I will paypal 5$ US to the person that can tell me what is maximum dimension of a 2003 Coupe i.e L X W x H with everything stripped i.e spare tire and all that crap. Thanks

there's no such measurements, because the coupe trunk is very irregularly shaped, even with all the trim panels removed. if you have a coupe yourself it is a relatively quick affair to remove the trunk floor and the sub-floor panels around the spare tire and all you'll need is a 10mm rachet

perhaps you could give us a better idea of what you're trying to do or what specific measurements you need?

I don't have a coupe yet, but I need to move my existing equipment

SUBS
2 x JL Audio 13W7

AMPS
2 x Phoenix Gold XENON 1200.1 (22L x 10.6W x 2.5H)
1 x Phoenix Gold XENON 200.4 (22L x 10.6W x 2.5H)

I'm more concerned about the subs, since my box is 35x 17 x 20 1/4. The amps I'm sure I can stuff them on the inside. Any ideas if this will work?

Thanks for the replies. Sorry I didn't realize I was asking an impossible question, however I did come across this bit of information found here

"The front mid-ship design lends itself to a spacious interior with 101.4 cubic feet in the passenger compartment and 14.5 cubic feet of trunk space."

So the space is there, now I just have to figure out how to arrange it. Thanks

I dont think there is enough space for pre-made box, especially for two 13W7s, not sure what car did that set-up come out from, but I highly dont think it will sound good in the G, all you gonna get is vibrations and rattles, you can fiberglass them but it will take entire trunk, May I suggest use just one of the sub with decent fiberglass box, you still can have spare tire intact.

Limeg35 is that a 13W7? If so, it does look like two will fit. Also, if I use the 6x9 holes as vents/ports for the sub, this should transfer most of the pressure to the front and should reduce rattling. What do you guys think?

BTW: This came out of a 95 Neon Sedan ( time to upgrade )

Its only an 10W7 with about 1.1 cbft, dont think remove the 6x9 will reduce much if any rattles at all , I like bass as much as next guy, but with single 10W7 are more than plenty for my taste... I am sure two 13's will fit but you would need an good fiberglassing box adn will use most of the trunk and without the spare tire.
