I've been running an Infinity Basslink in the trunk of my 380SE for years now. Absolutely super sound for the size, and money invested. I made a bracket to allow mounting on the left side of the trunk in the recess off the inside of the fender. I first tried a Kenwood WOOX, but it wasn't nearly enough power, so now the bracket is used to hang the Basslink. I found the post from years back with a picture of it, below.
Much has been posted about the gas tank and the poor acoustics of the 126 trunk for bass in the passenger cabin. IMO, this is rubbish. The storage shelf pocket and first aid kit pocket are made of thin plastic, acoustically transparant for bass waves. The sound moves up and over the gas tank and right into the interior.
I have another Basslink in transit right now for the 560SL, new off EBay for around $250.00, vs. the outrageous Future Shop price here of $399.99. The original in the 380SE was used, also EBay, and IIRC cost about $175.00 delivered. There's a newer version with 250W RMS (older one is 200W), more money and it's bigger, so I decided to stay with the original.
