Cutting Sub Box

[owen18]

Hey Guys

I am thinking of cutting about 1/2 inch off either side of my sub box so that i can fit it up against the back seat of my VL. I havent measured anything yet so it might not be that much, but i was wondering whats the consequences of a slightly shorter sub box and if it is ok to go through with it, whats the best way to get the carpet off without destroying it?
Thanks Sam

You could try a heat gun on the carpet... It depends what adhesive is holding it on.

Cutting such a small amount off the box won't make an audible difference.
