Port Location

My subs call for a 4" round port but the way i have designed the box to fit in my trunk i dont think i will have room in the front of the box for the two ports. Whats the next best location to put ports?

One can usually get away with the top of the box, or out the side.

Port it out the side.
I did that with my friends neon (ported to the drivers side), and it is insane loud for the equipment that we used.

^ Often a baffle may not have space for, say, two 4" round ports but there is space for a 12"x2" slot.
