[QUOTE="req, post: 3463200, member: 555713"] well. in short - hell yes. in long, you will have to find a way to isolate the rear end of the speaker from the elements. your best bet would be to get a wide W-like gasket, if you have seen any other blowthrough projects you will know what i am talking about, you put this between the wall of the cab and the wall of the bed to stop moisture ect from getting down between the bed and the cab onto the work area. then you will have to build some kind of seal behind the speaker - id assume you could make a sort of sealed enclosure like a normal blowthrough and then put a nice thick layer of goretex over a 'port' on the back side of the box so that it is open to the environment - but closed to the elements. the only thing i would worry about is humidity. the only practical way of doing said project would be having a taneau (sp?) cover over the bed i think. /edit computerman, so how do i measure the volume of my trunk [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/confused.gif.e820e0216602db4765798ac39d28caa9.gif[/IMG] i realize this is all possible on paper - but real life performance does not always reflect mathmatical calculations in the subwoofer world [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif[/IMG] i am not saying you are wrong, because this is not the case, im just saying ... well... i dont know what im saying [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] i just try to stay away from those kinds of calculations [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
