finished my install, opinions please...

Let me know what you think. The space at the top of the box was removed because with it all sealed up, the bass did not travel into the interior of the car. I'm thinking of building a small panel out of grill cloth to cover it up.

looks cool man, nice job...is that a 9500? how does it sound?

It looks good IMO. Kinda weird with that hole though, Have you tried firing the sub different ways? Good job

Yea looks good besides the little gap at the top.

lil gap= not sealing bass off from the cabin... completely walling it off is like walling off a van w/ the subs at the rear doors facing back...

clean clean, that white part would look a lil better w/out the gap at the top but very nice

Could have made the subbox flush with the white trim panel. Looks good tho.

Thanks for the opinions guys. It's actually light grey, kinda does look white in the pics, but it's an exact match for my interior. I'll probably pic up some grill cloth tomorrow and dye it grey to match and install it. The 9500 is awesomely loud with 1200 watts rms on it. I'll take a new video to put on realmofexcursion tonight, but this setup is quite a bit louder than my old one.

Here's the link to my old setup, the box is almost the same, I just went down to about 3.2 cubic ft instead of 3.7 tuned to 35hz and the volume increased quite a bit.

It was actually impossible. To get the airspace I needed and to be able to get the box into the trunk it had to stick out that far. Trust me, that was the first thing I tried to do, but when all the calculations were done, that's what it had to be.

nah man... I mean a trim panel could have been cut out around the box like it is just put that much farther forward lol. it would take like 20 minutes to do.

nvm it would cover up like all of your amp...

Plus it wouldn't be under the lip of the trunk, trust me, I thought about any way I could to get rid of that.

Looks good, and the first vid was pretty much the same thing i did...

Looking forward to another //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
