rear cargo area box

Hey I remember someone posting a pic of a box that fits right in place of the cargo area hole in the back. Can someone post that again for me? also, is that just a piece of wood on top of the hole, or is that an actual box sitting down in there?

I would definately put a box, just a piece of wood screwed down would probably sound like cr@p

The Box i made for my car using most( 3 inches on either side) of the rear cargo area was 4.1 f^3 This was also small enough to stay under the little flip thingy to keep it stealth and it has no problem holding 1 15 and 2 4" port holes.

Oh no??? Then who is this????

I am using fiberglass to basically make a mold of the entire rear section. Like I said, as I guess 7-8cubes. I will use the water method to find out exactly once I finish. Haven't had a lot of time recently though....
