My Winter System Install

[throatrattling 10+ year member]

Well, took about a month and a half of weekends this winter

-20 degree days and a tiny garage but I got done most of my install.

Sound deadened the whole car with Queit Coat paint on sound deadener. Started by building a support in the spare well, and then built a new floor for the trunk. Then added the face for the box and amps.

Here's some pics of the custom trunk.. will add a bunch showing the whole process tomorrow.

Please don't mind the carpet coming off on one of the ports haha.. and there will be another face on the top closing everything off, and spacers but under the amps to boost them up and get rid of the gap ..just too tired to do anymore at this point. Please give me some feedback this is my first install ever.

Don't look like much port area, but clean install for sure.

Looks good, bro. Planning on building a new enclosure for my sub this spring, and rearranging my equipment. Plan on doing something similar.

Once again, good work!

Thanks a lot for the feedback. It's my first attempt, hopefully going to make it a bit better when it gets warmer. Cheers.

That's a port...? It looks like it's 1" wide. O_O

But, clean looking.

looks like too small of port area, and yea, i see there are two ports, but like 24 sq inches is only good for like a 2 cube box...and it looks a lil bigger than that, lol

nice job.

I you are re-doing the top plate (over the amps) for the new amp, ditch the cap and get a second battery if you can fit it.
