Hi everyone,
First for sale is my dual 10” woofer enclosure that I built for my 2012 Yaris SE.
Its dimensions allow it to be placed (preferably) on the rear passengers’ floor area, as well as in the trunk (perfectly between the rear fenders) either facing toward the rear or toward the front. The subwoofers are also positioned as high in the box as possible, and fire exactly into the center of each front seat. The black carpeting makes the enclosure all but invisible when looking into the rear windows, for security.
Placement of the subwoofer enclosure on the rear passenger floor allows you to enjoy getting kicked in the back with bass, and its location in the center of the car between the high-strength steel B-pillars allows you to enjoy the bass without any ghetto rattling.
The enclosure includes (2) 10” MTX subwoofers in two sealed enclosures each with 0.6 ft3 of internal volume. I designed the dual enclosure with a secure handle in the center linking the two enclosures and allowing for easy one-handed removal and transportation of the enclosure to the trunk area when you have rear seat passengers. However, I have just had the rear passenger simply sit cross-legged.
This item includes the enclosure with the MTX subwoofers and enough 12 AWG speaker wire to reach an amplifier in the trunk.
The dual 10” subwoofer package is priced at $100 cash pickup only at my house in San Francisco.

Second for sale is a dual 2-ohm 15” Polk subwoofer (rated at 360 watts RMS) in a sealed 1.5 ft3 Sound Ordinance enclosure. The subwoofer is currently wired in parallel to 1 ohm, and can also be wired in series to 4 ohm. When I assembled the subwoofer onto the box, I also made a rubber foam gasket to ensure a tight air seal between the the box and the subwoofer, and I used extra wiring internally to make sure all the amp’s watts would make it to the subwoofer.
This enclosure fit in the trunk of my 2012 Yaris SE. It pushed the trunk cover up about 1/2”, but the trunk still closed without any problems.
The item will include the 15” subwoofer in the sealed enclosure and approximately 5’10” of 12 AWG speaker wire.
This 15” subwoofer package is also priced to sell at $80 cash pickup only at my house in San Francisco.

All subwoofers are fully functional and have not been overdriven or abused.

The carpeting had come a little loose over time in a couple places, but since taking the pics and now placing the enclosure for sale, I've addressed that with a little spray glue, as can be seen in the pics in Post #1 of this thread :smile:

these both look really nice. I'd pick the dually up from you if I was local. We have the same exact car as well, color also.

I would imagine these subwoofer enclosures would fit all Yaris models '12-up as well as the Scion xA.
Does anyone know what other years of Yaris these would fit? Perhaps some of the pre-2012 models?
