12" JL Audio Sub Box................

Hey everyone, I was looking around on ebay and I am thinking of getting a box off of there rather than spending $100 for a box made by tweeters or cartoys. Here is the link Click Here.
I am going to get a 12" JL Audio W6 Sub and I want as little trunk space to be taken up as possible, I am always carrying around stuff in there. Will this box fit in the trunk of my civic and will this 12" JL Audio sub fit in it depth wise? Thanks for your help!

well.. im not an expert... but i dont think you would be doing yourself justice by putting that JL in a sealed box

go with a ported box... build it yourself, or dont have the time buy one, **if you really have some extra money laying around get one that was made by JL**

like i said... ME = not expert... but just speaking from experience, i had my sub in a sealed box, then changed to a custom made ported because it sound SO MUCH BETTER + you'll get more output from it (SPL)

the box will make or break the sub
