My stang liked sub foward port side.

Just like most trunks.

It sounded ALOT louder than it was on teh meter.

It moved ALOT of air.

It hated sealed up. Windows down=loud.

Which is g00d for daily driver.

um...... What?

What do you suppose the fiberglass does? Last I checked fiberglass wasn't a very breathable material.

Non sealed would just be facing them forward, fiberglassing them in seals them.

heres the next wave of additions going into the stang.

 

[t-rex audio 10+ year member]

what are you going to do with the fiberglass?? are you making some pods?

 

[DarkFox 10+ year member]

nah, of you notice those adapter rings under that 4 and 8 ga wire there, I'm putting the 6 1/2s in the doors and rear deck (factory spots,) gonna run my own wire to them though. the Glass is gonna be for when I spin the subs around, I am gonna glass them into the cab, so when you fold down the seats, you see what looks to be subs built into the car.

There is a huge accident on 95 though, cutting me off from Lowe's (need some wood to make a sub floor in trunk) so now I am stuck, with that storm coming in this weekend too, don't think I am gonna get out much this weekend, so the only thing i really think I am going to be able to get done is mount the speakers in the adapters, and maybe get the front speakers in, but not wired. Too bad Stratford was so far, I could use a hand ;-)

You might want to use fleece and resin over that. Then add fiberglass matt to the top of that for strength.

 

[DarkFox 10+ year member]

hmm.... not going to have it in there for any structural support, or for the enclosure itself... think I need to go through all that just to make a fascia? Box is gonna be sitting on a sub floor screwed to the frame.

 

[t-rex audio 10+ year member]

is just a cover or are you sealing it right to the box?
