don't worry, i've been busy. Bustin' my friggin tail, actually.
Front baffle finally got done, test fitting the woofers: (good thing too because I needed to sand a tiny bit off to get a better fit with the gasket)
PL Premium'd into the trunk (don't worry, it'll be surrounded with glass and such later)
deadening trunk for no reason whatsoever:
will it clear the trunk floor? please? please?
don't worry, i kinda sorted planned for something like this. Lined up like it will be when screwed in (with some assistance from my brother)
That's about all the work. Batteries are going in the little "cubbies" on the sides of the trunk - it's a pretty good fit. Here:
later on i will be glassing the sides of the box to the contours of the sides of the trunk:
awesome. I'm starting to get excited about this now. I'm a little bit worried that I didn't leave quite enough clearance between the front baffle and the back seat - after all, the eclipse TI's can move about 2" in both directions!! Tomorrow i might mount one and try it out, we'll see if i'm feeling it.
