[QUOTE="req, post: 3394349, member: 555713"] cool stuff man. all the other gurus beat me to it. i agree, dont bother making vents, your trunk is quite large. i need to calculate the area in my hatch... i may have to make some vents. when i play low notes at loud volumes - its quite amazing, that 70lb panel hops around a bit.. i gotta make some reinforcements to that shit on the sides. some sort of rotating cuff to stop it from bouncing. i still have lots of shit to do to my car, but ive been so **** busy with other peoples installs and lack of $ i have just not found the time to spend on my own stuff. if i ever make it out to la with my vw (wich i might go as far as arizona because i have a good friend moving there in a few months) ill be sure to let you know. and also - it should be quite easy to build a trim panel for the baffle there. cut out something that matches the trapezoid shape made by the plastic trim there, and tape off the trim. then temporarially screw the piece on, and squeeze short hair reinforced body filler in the gap between the panel and the trim pieces, sand smooth, and paint or vynl. (dont forget to cut a sub hole too) it could look real great with like 4 hours of work total and some vynl.
