Show me your Boot Install

[Deleted member 13581]

Yeah Rich, will manage it in about 2 hours max.

Found it easier to run the phono and remote cables up the centre console. Takes less time than taking off all the trim on the right hand side aswell.

u wanna do a quide or somthink to put them through that way? im trying to thing how you go about doing that... plus u still have to take one side of for the power cable...

 

[Deleted member 13581]

Its really easy to do.

I will do it and take pictures when im doing Diss' car.

Power cable isnt a problem once you get it through the Gromets at the top right of the engine bay.

Will take pics of a step by step guide.

Homemade box not finished in these pics. 2 sealed subs one massive amp sitting between them. I have no room in the boot now for anything apart from behind the amp which you can only access from inside when you pull the seats forward. Great hiding place for stuff though!

Ported box coming soon though as the bass is shaking this setup apart.

Nope its still not finished. Yeah my mate smothered it in woodfiller to try and smooth it out. Was gonna paint it a loud colour but lost interest after the left sub decided to shake itself apart from its dustcap. Just waiting for a new dustcap that matches the sub on the right but I still have to wait a few weeks as the parts are on the ocean coming on a ship from america.

Oh and the subs make the whole box shake up and down so I'll probably just get a ported box in and mount the amp ontop of the box so I have some boot space again.

 

[st10587]

smooth out the filler n carpet the boxes, carpet hide a lot of messy finishes or mistakes lol! could you not port you custom build boxes

 

[Poverty]

Suppose they could be ported but that would mean a drastic design change. Would be easier to just make a box from scratch.

 

[RichieRich]

i know what u mean i gave up on custom boxes in the end they dont sound the same as pre-built ones for some reason? you got any day light pics?
