Is there any depth to the box to amplify the bass? Right now it just looks like two pieces of board glued together.

Better watch. Not enough box volume will destroy a sub.

you need to somehow port that box in a few spots. It's way to small to be sealed.

It's probably .5 cu. A 1.5" port 9" long should help

lol i don't think it's big enough for that. The back and sides are pretty much out of play being stuffed in a cubby. Maybe able to get some hole ports in the front - like (2) 2" dia ports in the bottom and (2) 1" dia ports to the right side

Then it would be a free air and they suckkkkkk, honestly there just isn't enough air space unless the box goes all the way into the void in the rear quarter

I have two cerwin vega free air 10s that I built a solid baffle for in my mustang. The subs are designed for free air. They actually sound really good.
