You said you were mounting the subs themselves on a piece of glass? If you get a thick sheet of lexan, you could use that as the piece to mount your subs in and be the top of the box. Or were you talking about something else?

Royalty

LOL nah man I meant glass as in "fiber"glass.

u made my day on that one

Royalty

already on top of it. The box will be able to be removed to access the bulbs.

Ah, that makes much more sense. I was wondering why you wanted a clear sub box that was going to be hidden under carpet... lol

Royalty

woke up at noon today ( yay for summer break) so i didnt do too much.

I decided to use my better judgement and go for a solid foundation...

Though functional, looks liek ***.
So i replaced it with



It clears perfectly and folds down like butta.


I'll get started on the front tomorrow or monday.

It has come to my attention that the amps i intended on using were too big so it seems i now need new amps, yay

It would be cool if you could install all the electronics on the board and then recover it in the leather to keep it looking good, as long as the electronics were still accessable. Maybe something like velcro would work...?

Royalty

elaborate on "electonics". sounds interesting.

I will have my distro blocks showing if thats what you mean.

What I meant was something like installing the amps and subs on the board like you have, and then stacking foam around them and putting the leather cover back on. From the outside it would look like you have normal rear seats.

You could attack the leather cover with velcro over the top and bottom, and be able to easily access the "electronics".

I don't know what the foam would do for acoustics, though.

Royalty

ah a nice bit of camouflage. only problem is that teh amps will get hot and i want them to get as much air as possible.

foam + heat = my *** on fire hahaha

The is blasphemy upon your Porsche. No offense, whatever floats your boat I guess.

Cut up what is left of the rear seat so that you only have the shoulder bolsters in leather, and then have the amps openly mounted inbetween the shoulder bolsters where the flat part of the leather used to be.

Did you find carpet to put on the wood? If so, where did you find it?

Hey I like what your doing. I tired to do that awhile ago, the problem was I couldn’t get the top plate to seal to the car very good so I just built a top plate and a box underneath.
