Buick Enclave build

Box should be finished today. Amp going on top with a 1" space to keep it off the sub enclosure. Subs will be covered with mesh and thin metal grille cover to protect when I need to use the back. Will be wrapped in cream vinyl to match the headliner, I wanted it to stand out. Tuned to about 35htz, we did get good measurements and emailed Jacob for port length/etc.

I forgot to get pics of the rear doors and the HU, but I have to get into them again anyways to rewire crossovers and run remote wire RCA's.

nice. is that the box itself or false floor? massive on everything minus subs?

Thats the box, which is the false floor. The hole in the front is going to be filled to complete it with something, not sure. There is a bolt for the spare tire that is going to be left uncovered.

Yes Massive everything except the SA8's

From my experience, you'll want to make sure that amp gets ample cooling. I installed an NX5 in my buddy's GTO behind the trim on the rear passenger side. After about an hour of "loud" music, the amp shuts off. After letting it sit for about 15 minutes, it cools back down and plays again.

I've hear some have had issues, its going to get plenty of cooling thou. The builder is a Massive dealer so he's taking that into consideration.

Ok so finish most of the rest today. I need to add fans for the amp as it gets hot. I have to say thou at the moment I'm NOT impressed. I have had a couple issues already so hopefully fixing them will help. The dustcap popped off and I need to reglue it down, the reconed sub I bought from someone here had the pos/neg switched so one sub was out of phase at first. I also need to finish up screwing the subs down and letting the silicone dry for the sub wiring.
