Many people ask about putting a sub enclosure in a Mercedes. I would avoid so-called "free air" subs because they cannot produce the tight, deep, bass that a properly built box does. If a box is required that can be moved from one vehicle to another, I would strongly suggest the new Kicker, square Solobarik. A single 12" in a very small box will produce superb bass. If a box were to be built (correctly) by an experienced box builder for a Mercedes, I would humbly suggest a single 12" quality subwoofer in a bandpass box whose port rises from the top of the enclosure to just above the rear package shelf, delivering the bass INSIDE the car.

You could use two smaller woofers in an isobaric cofiguation. If you want plans, contact the company who sells the woofers and they will send you plans for this enclosure to be used withthe particular woofer you now own.
