well here it is......started off at 12, went to B&Q, got 4 sheets of 12mm MDF, a jigsaw and some screws



first off, made the false floor



than after a lot of cardboard tempelating......came up with this



fits nicely too



than made a box for the subs, took the same measurements as of the base tube the subs are from



screwed the box to the floor



than after a lot more tempelating.....



the garage looked a mess, and the old sub box



than marked where i wanted the 6x9's to be



10 mins later



took the top out and used some aquastec (whatever) carpet that i had left over from my mates car



finally everything is in






gonna be very creative with the little space after the brace....need to save up first



but happy for now smile.gif



the HU was really bugging me as it was sitting a good inch on top of the dash surround panel, looked horrid :puke: and as i was off work today, had a go at making it fit better, first thought i'd fiberglass the old chopped up surround, but then, decided to hack the brackets, only needed to sand a bit of the surround down, the end result is really good, very pleased with it

the red marker shows how it sat before





the gap between the seats and the build was really bothering me , so decided to do this

some measurements were taken



cut and shut...



working around the sub's amp



a rough layout of how things were going to be



i love it when a plan comes together biggrin.gif



the brace sits a bit tight with the amp, might adjust it a bit more tomorrow



a minor tweek today, the amp was too tight with the brace...so







sounds great, the ripspeed unit is awsome
