First, I would edit this first post. The grammar and syntax is horrible. You will get better response if people can understand you. I think most people can understand that you are looking for 'specs' (what exactly do you mean by specs? measurements?) for an enclosure set into the hatch where the current fluid reservoir is. Secondly, you may get this thread closed for bumping (your second post). We can see the car in your profile to the left.

Personally, if you are going to go for performance, the reservoir can be tapped for water/alcohol injection. Don't ditch the spare if you use your car as a daily driver.
 
Ok, I am sorry for the bad typing skills, i was in a class and was trying to type fast. Well i will start from the top then. I bought this car from a kid who had taken out the fluid resovior and the spare, i do have both and it is not a 100 percent daily driver. I have my sub which is in a box enclosure right now. The sub is 10 inch sub and the back looks like crap. I just want some setup to fix this. The mounts for the spare and what is holding it up are gone. So the top plywood and capet just kind of flops down and is a little broken so i need something. Im not to sure what but thankyou for the help, and again sorry for the bad typing skills.
 
i used 3/4 inch MDF board and automotive carpet from wal mart. just trace it out and cut the wood and use super adhesive for the carpet and i can get you a set of these fiberglass boxes for 2 10's or 2 12's

^Nice setup, but I think without the spare, there is a whole lot more room for him to mess with.

I would put the reservoir back at least. I use mine quite a bit. The spare... eh, you say it's not a daily driver, so you could use all of that extra space to sing a nice amp into and keep the floor area flush. Make a custom rear trunk-panel-deck-lid-thingamajig to house the speakers. VIOLA! all the cargo room and one kick ass setup. Just my opinion though.
 
basicly the same thing i did....sunk my amp and had fiberglass boxes made. there is quite a bit of space there. you would have to build a fiberglass enclosure for a box or build a box with an open top and screw it to the bottom board and mount your sub that way
 
So does anyone have any other pics of what they did and maybe how to stuff. Cause i need something, right now the resovior and the spare and mounts for everything are out so its just empty. So i need to put something in there.
 
if you use 1/2" or 3/4" MDF board you won't need any support underneath. just trace it out, cut it, carpet and your done
 
i just kept my original floor and screwed in 2" strips of 3/4" MDF across, it holds 2 12 sony xplods, sony 1400 explode amp, and 2 cu ft mdf boxes up without flex. the floor is broken, but the screws hold the pices in place

I had this custom made for a 95 GSX project that I got rid of (huge headache). Its specifically designed for 2 Kicker Solobaric S12D subs the circle ones that are not available anymore and a kicker KX400.1 amp. I have the subs and amp for. If your interested PM me.
