I assume you're going to be using that Kicker from a previous post? You're going to be battling some serious vibration problems. The side panels the shroud attaches to are screwed directly to metal and will Vibrate along with all the wiring and parts attached to the rear 1/4 panel guts. Unless you weigh that panel down or bolt it solidly in place, the sub is going to shake the panel everytime it starts working, making the sub's output less effective and wasted.
I've seen a few Foci with smaller free air setups built into the panel and even in those cases it was mainly a show thing, with the owners mentioning that the panel had a tendency to hop.
By all means try it out, I'd love to see it pulled off but it's going to be a lot of work to get it working right. Personally I would just stick to the spare well enclosure. They are easy to build and effective. Either way good luck :)
