What spec level is your S40?
The easiest place is under the boot floor, where the amp goes if you have the upgraded sound system.
It might be worth upgrading the speakers in the parcel shelf first, you get plenty of bass out of these without a sub.

Done all the speakers head unit, just needs a sub to boost the bass,
