Hey, I'm new to the boards and was refered over here from http://www.fordexplorer.net
Tonight I'm ordering 2 Alpine 10" Type R's and a 1500watt HiFonics Amp. I'll also be getting an alpine head unit, I can't think of the model number off of my head, but I know that it is fairly good. I think I've figured everything out except for how I'm going to build my box. I picked an area for where I'm going to put it, but I don't know exactly how I'll be able to fit the subs there.
Have a look:
I have an '04 Ford Explorer XLT and I don't want to use the trunk space so i decided I want to build the box between my 2nd and 3rd row of seats. The space at the floor is abot 7 inches, and about 40 inches long, but it slopes outwards as you move from bottom to top, which makes me think I have enough room to to do it. I was also thinking that I could extend the box about a foot over the height of the trunk floor and definitely have the room by facing the subs towards the front/back instead of towards the celing. Sorry I only was able to take one pic before my camera battery died, I'll take more tonight after it's charged up.
I'd like to know how to build the box, I already bought 3/4 inch thick wood and some screws, where do I ge the carpet and should I port the box? Where should I do it? Also, what do you think about the system I'm installing? Let me know, and thank you so much in advance for your responses.
