I welcome any input...

There's lots of information on the web about building enclosures. You have to start by determining what size area you have to work with and then finding out what would be the best for the L7. Sealed is the best if there are size issues and ported allows more output from the same power. In regular cab trucks sometimes its best to use a flat sub and there are many out there. We've actually done cut thru's from the bed, again really depends on how much output you're looking to have. Look at the spec;s on your L7 to see its parameters, it might be the wrong sub to start with!!!!!!

Here's a link to give you a little more understanding and good luck.....
