Plans for 2 JL 15w3v3s?

Would someone be willing to make some blueprints for a box for me?

I am putting 2 JL 15w3s in my 96 Accord, I'll put a link to the dimensions of my trunk.

Between the bars of the actual trunk lid is 33", so lets say the dimensions I'd need are around 32" W 20" H and 22" L

Could a nice ported box be designed for my subs within these dimensions?

You wont be able to fit a ported enclosure for both woofers if you stick to the reccommended specs.

You could do a sealed enclosure though with your given dimensions

Well, I actually built a sealed enclosure tonight with the reccomended specs. Would a sealed with recommended specs be better (louder) than a ported with compromised specs?

It really depends. I have built enclosures that have been a whole cubic foot smaller and its still come out to work well. Its really subwoofer dependant.

Are you willing to use 4" aeroports?

How difficult would that be to accomplish? I'm working with basic woodworking skills, so keep that in mind. Could you give me an example of the type of box I'd be looking at with that design?

It would basically be a sealed enclosure, with a pair of 4" aeroports firing to the side of the enclosure

I went by what JL has for the v2's thinking it was maybe a typo

Yeah, they're v2s. I don't think I specified in my original post.
