All I can tell you is that it is a 10" sub mounted in the rear deck. Seems to mount from the top but fires downward into the trunk. You can see it in plain view if you remove the trunk liners. There appear to be 3 visible plastic clips that can be compressed to release the sub ( after removing the deck cover from inside the car?...)
