kicker 12 " l7's 2 of them well i didnt get anything done today since i had my daughter and it was raining so tomorrow i will do more

 

[Mr. Win]

yea mad props a trunk is so much easier then a hatch...

 

[Matthew]

i want to do something like this...but i need a damn system first (rofl)

 

[joka1]

i disagree, hatches are easier imo........ more room to play with but thanks for the compliments so far

matt its a waste of a turbo... what you need to do big dawg is do suspension and rollcage. make something that looks good jsut as functional. nothing but strut and ladder bars

 

[Matthew]

well, ive been talking to people, we'll see what happens...in other words, ive already thought about that (evil)

 

[sndsgood]

looking good, i'd use the carpet to cover your stock carped trunk pieces so it all matches and doesnt look mismatched

 

[joka1]

i am going to recarpet the whole trunk in the black soon, once i get everything built and together i am going to take it back apart, recarpet the sides of the trunk and paint my brain black with blue lettering and a few other things. this is just the initial build up to see how everything fits. plus when i go to the track i will just pull my subs out so it wont be a waste of my turbo!

I am confused where are the subs going to go? I would like to do this but I want the sub to be in the floor and plexi over it, so I could still use the trunk for hauling a few things

 

[DZnutz]

hey joka, i began doin the exact same thing as you but then i gave up. how did you trace all the contours of the side and rear of the trunk onto the mdf? i see youve got a nice snug fit all the way around

PS: what thickness of mdf did you use?

 

[mypfizzle]

looks great man. when u coming to cali so u can do mine -=P

 

[joka1]

subs are going to be in boxes on the sides....kinda hard to explain but by wednesday you will get the point. the way i traced out the contours was .... i just traces out the carpet that goes in the trunk normally.....

[joka1]

ya that is all the wires... their are speaker wires/ optical lines/ remote lines and a bunch more!!!! they are all hidden now and hooked up!!!!!!

 

[Shane5425]

holy s***, thats alot of wires..... i guess i am getting there if i think about it.. mine are jsut really spaced out..

 

[sndsgood]

yeah it can get up there sometimes, i weighed the majority of the wires i put into my sunfire and i was well over 60lbs just in wires,

 

[joka1]

todays progress.....
both the boxes are built and sealed.... ready for carpet tomorrow!!
