ok i have hit a wall of issues now!!!!
as i have built 2 sub boxs the same size some where i have missed some measures!
and the amp will not fit in the middle of them!!! lame!!!
so still building the false floor for the cool effect with the subs but going to mount the amp at the back with a nice neon  something like this so far!
ah well still going well i guess

ok i could leave the boxs the same size and have the amp mounts in the middle but raised up, and as the boxs are at a angle will fit in
tbh im tempted to have a fake wall kinda of thing have the amp at the back in the middle and all the wires behind the wall get some neons on that puppy!
dont really wanna make the boxs smaller they they are the right size for best sound for the subs
dont intend to show it off that much with havin the amp in the floor
going to customise a parcel shelf so it only has two sides and no middlebhgrfedsceS

Well if you really do need to make the box smaller, you can just put some packing in the box to give the sub the impression the box is bigger. Something like loft insulation works, or even the white stuffing from a teddy bear!

Not sure diy shops will sell them tbh.
You want something that is made for the job.
