I thought about plexi, but I couldnt really do what I wanted with it.

Im very limited on my height in the trunk. No room to run wires under the floor or anything. I was able to sneak the rca and remote through the carpet into the spare tire well though. The power (fused) and ground runs will come off the battery and be secured to the floor. The other amps are going on the back of the box or back of the seat.

your speaker has radiation. i'd toss that in the garbage! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wow.gif.23d729408e9177caa2a0ed6a2ba6588e.gif

are you going to remove that battery from that spot? would be an eye sore if it stayed.

I dont have any other option //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif

Im gonna make a box to go around it and clean it up though. However Im going to leave the short pieces of 1/0 exposed with the fuse. It should look pretty clean once I finish it up. Good enough for what I need anyways. I just want something that will be easy to swap boxes out.

Anyways, I was able to fix my problem with my terminals on the sub. I have two different style terminals though //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif But I tore the tips off of one of them and crimped on some new connectors which I bent up really nicely and solder the tinsels to. The other side would have worked out just the same but the **** posts broke off. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif Luckily I had another terminal in the tool box, but, its a push terminal //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif I just stuck the sub in with that on the bottom though and you cant see it anyways. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Got a lot done and have some pics uploading. Not nearly finished, but its mocked up to the point that I can drive around with my sub and amp in! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif Just need to glass the doors and make a little rack for the little amps to go on the back of the box. Not much longer now!

Dont mind the battery mess, its just temporary till I figure out where exactly it will be sitting. Ill trim the wires down once I make the battery box.

I think Im gonna try to stuff the battery behind the seat. I might be able to, but this deka is pretty huge, maybe if I swap out to a little smaller one I could. Then I can make a rake and stack the front stage amps.

I bet it would fit with some massaging to the back of the seat.
