SB-VW-NB/10W3v3: Stealthbox® for 1998-2011 Volkswagen New Bettle

Our design for VW's brilliant little car is considerate of its limited hatch space, fitting under the spare tire and allowing the spare to fit back over it. The overall height of the floor is only slightly raised allowing you to keep the majority of your precious storage space. A powerful 10-inch subwoofer fires down into the spare tire well and pressurizes the Beetle's cabin like a much bigger conventional sub.

The Hard Data: Contains one 10W3v3-2 in a sealed enclosure. 500 watt power handling. Wired for 2 ohm mono. Installs in spare tire well... spare tire installs onto the Stealthbox®, raising hatch floor 3 inches from stock height. A special kit and replacement hatch floor is provided to raise the entire hatch floor, maintaining its flatness. Stealthbox® can be installed without the spare tire, creating a 1-inch bulge. To remove spare tire, the Stealthbox® must be unbolted from under the car. VW Dealer-installed CD changer may require notching of the floor provided with Stealthbox®, depending on where it is installed. Will not fit convertible model.

"If you're lucky enough to have a vehicle that one of these Stealthboxes is made for, choosing it over anything else we have heard or seen is a no-brainer."

– CarSound Magazine

"...I was only hoping for more bass to the tune of what the factory Shaker 1000 system offered. What the JL Audio Stealthbox delivered was performance that surpasses the factory Ford stereo systems so completely that you can’t even compare the two systems."

– Shane McGlaun, I4U News, November 2010... on the Ford Mustang Stealthbox
