if a sub has a mounting depth of 137mm whats the minimum gap i should have behind te magnet of the sub?
Really depends on the sub, but plan for no less than the diameter of the pole vent/piece.
Is the sub vented ? most are but its worth checking..

might want to ask the ebayer how deep the speakers are.
but basically you need at lest 137mm.

1: Is the sub vented
if no the just make sure the base of the magnet does not touch the back of the enclosure
if yes, then ask
2: What is the diameter of the pole piece
but if you had to guess i would leave 1.5" or 1" min.
Where are you planning to install this sub by the way ?

I want to make an enclosure that mimicks the lower part of the rear seat but obviously slightly thicker and fit 2 subs in t it. Im just reying to work out how much thicker it has to be.

If you saved up a little you could get some shallow mounting subs, making your installation a little easier. Hertz also do a nice sub at £100 that'll work well in tight spaces.
