my set up finally!

That looks like it sounds really good....I don't know much about systems other than I like them when they sound good.
What's with all the different coloured wires? Looks a little like misplaced Christmas tree decorations.

I don't understand the speakers being in a case like that, it looks like the sound would be traped? Can you explain how it works, I do see those ports that are "behind" the speakers.

I was thinking you might know why they have the speakers enclosed and facing each other as opposed to facing out like most speakers? I know Bose has a unique speaker arrangement built into their systems, but never having seen the inside of one, I have no idea how it works or looks like, and was wondering if yours may be something aligned the same way?

Bandpass Subwoofer Boxes
And last but not least are Bandpass enclosures. These are a hybrid box version and combine the features of a sealed and ported sub box into one enclosure. They are generally the hardest to build and design but offer some unique advantages. Bandpass enclosures are all about efficiency. How they work is a subwoofer or subwoofers in some cases are mounted inside a dual chambered box. One chamber is sealed and the other is ported / vented. The sound waves travel from the sealed subwoofer chamber though and out the port. This allows for a much deeper sounding bass and will be tuned to a narrow frequency band which creates a very aggressive sound. Not all subwoofers will work in bandpass enclosure so make sure you research or check the manual first.

Of course this doesn't explain anything about why speakers are point toward each other. I think it really is just an issue of appearance. Or possibly for space saving due to limited trunk space when trying to make room for ports.

As far as a Bose sub goes, they are bandpass:

My amp is mounted on the backside of the box and have it positioned like the OPs pic. Everything bundled and wrapped. If you need to access the amp just fold the rear seats down and you have a comfortable seat to dismount or just work on it.

It's a good start. Although i would suggest 2, 10 Inch kicker L7 with a nice custome pro box with the correct measurements. Which is also hard to find. Goodluck though, looks nice.
 
Thanks. I have place like half hour away from my house that sells audi and stero equipment for cars and they do custom boxes so ill look into that
