If you cut a hole, you need an engineers cert... don't do it!
Just put it in a box in the boot.
You'll regret doing it at resale time when everybody points and asks.

Every sedan has a hole for the sub wether they use one or not, if not its covered with carpet. I noticed on Marcus Ambroses Supercar when he backed it into the wall at Surfers that it had the hole for the subby in the parcel shelf too.

If the holes don't line up or so you do not have to cut anything, you could build an adaptor plate, using the original holes to mount the adapter plate below ( in the boot and bolt the sub to it and all should be good.

just an idea

There is no hole in the pacel shelf at all. There is a hole in the metal work below it. I was justing going to put it in the hole so it would sit under the pacel shelf like the premium sound in the barra
