What we researched for this specific generation: where an enclosure actually fits, what the factory speakers are, how the factory audio is wired, and which real builds and commercial products exist for it. Confidence badges say how well each figure is sourced — this is research, not manufacturer spec.
Body styles covered: 4-Door Sedan, 2-Door Coupe
These are researched envelopes, not a guarantee. Measure your own vehicle — the numbers here tell you what to expect, not what you have.
| Location | trunk, below the rear dash |
|---|---|
| Outer bounding box | Vehicle-specific enclosure catalogues; published box footprints are lower bounds on the cavity, not the cavity: SRQ Customs 'HONDA ACCORD 1998-2002 SUB ENCLOSURE': 50 x 16 x 16 in (as printed; axes not labelled), 1.75 cu.ft of airspace, reducible by request, "fits under the rear deck and up against the back of the back seat"; "Full access to the spare tire is possible without removing the enclosure". Zenclosures prints no outside dimensions. |
| Known obstructions | SRQ Customs: spare tire stays reachable without removing the box. No measured trunk dimensions found. |
Sizes and depths below are what research turned up for this generation. Confirm against your own vehicle before cutting or ordering — trim levels vary.
| Factory speaker size | no maker or Metra source read for the front doors |

| Adapter bracket needed | unconfirmed |
| Factory speaker size | no maker or Metra source read for the rear doors |

Honda 1998: "Trunk storage has been increased to 14.1 cu. ft." (the release does not name the body style). fueleconomy.gov prints 14 for both the coupe (lv2) and sedan (lv4) in 1998, 2000 and 2002. A luggage rating, not a box volume. Boxes: Zenclosures 0.88 ft3 per chamber at 7.75 in; SRQ Customs 50 x 16 x 16 in, 1.75 cu ft, spare tire still reachable.
Outside links. Some are commercial products, some are owner builds posted on forums — the label says which. We do not endorse any of them.
Each link opens the tool with this vehicle already selected.
Measure your own vehicle. Trim levels, factory subwoofer options, and mid-generation changes all move these numbers, and a box cut to a researched figure that does not match your truck is wasted wood. Where a badge reads Unconfirmed, treat the value as a starting point for your own measurement, not as an answer.
