1.ya its going to be a pain to connect the mdf to the fiberglass but i am gonna get it to far now to turn around

2.make sure your fiberglass is 1/4" thick on the flat spot -- ya i cut out a section to mount my ring terminals and i measured it and it was exactly 1/4" in that spot

3.a solid router and some jasper circle jigs should be on your christmas list. they make cutting circles a breeze and they come out perfect-- ya but i dont plan on doing this alot so i just used the tools i had already got to much money in it now lol

will post more pics tonight gonna go do some sanding right now

f you blow a sub in a box with 2 other subs its going to sound like crap and there is nothing you can do until you buy a new sub.

well kinda hard to make 3 equal sized boxs under the back seat and they all be run on the same amp so if one goes i need to wait anyways and replace that one or rewire them all again

more pics


all semi-flushmount rings in


how thick the fiberglass was that i cut out

im not gonna write a story about my 8"s :roll:

ill post some more pictures tonight--

yall your right connecting wood to fiberglass is kinda tough-- o well i know better next time

quick questions i was gonna put some coaxials in the back doors
but being so close to the subs will they be canceled out or distored :crikey:
would it be worth it putting them back there or just go for a nice set of components up front??? :confused: any ideas??:comphead:

oo ya hopefully i will be done around 2nd week of may got exams next week so wont be able to do much on it
no i fail at being witty i was trying it back on you :comphead:.

yup working on tuning it a little bit then off to the strip- :) been a long time but hard work and the dizzy feeling was worth it
bad thing is i am already trying to figure out a way to try to add some space and port it but it will stay like this for at least 4-5 months

scott i didn't know you had such a great build in your king cab at one point.

i am looking for a lap belt now for the center seat because i had to take the middle seat belt mechanism and belt out to fit amp rack in behind seat
