New Install (Pics)

It actualy looks dang good and would look really nice in there. I like the lay out of it. Only ? i have for the sub placement is one sub going in the back on top of the flat part and the other going in the front by the dash? cuz i dont think both would fit in the back spot.

Thanks for the design my photo image softwere on my comp does not let me do that kinda stuff.

 
oh yea they will fit =P

what you do is make a wood bottom (5 sides -bottom\side\side\side\side) and then make a frame for the center part...make a bottom contour then cut out the top part where the plexiglass goes with the cup holders (just use two pieces of 4" PVC for them or somthin)

then get some wood scraps, and mount it on the bottom contour of the console like you would do a fiberglass subwoofer baffle... then stretch fleece along the sides and attach to the UNDERSIDE of the top and the bottom of the bottom (so you dont get any overlapping from the fleece to sand down - pain in the ***)

then resin it all and the console is almost done.

all ya do next, is make some flushmount L7 10" baffles, and do the same thing ya did with the console, and mount them to where they fit and look nice. then calculate how much airspace is gonna be in there (stretch the fleece and fill with peanuts BEFORE glassing) and put a 3 or 4" pvc port in there to come above the amp- and cut a hole in the fleece to glue it in place (maybe not all the way in, i have a secret) and sand it down and resin it all.

then more than half that PVC port should be sticking out (not gonna be an EXACT tune, but itl be close) after its all glassed and the ports are in place, glue a piece of fleece to the front of the pvc ports (like it looks in the pictures - make sure you sand where the ports are gonna be connect or else they wont stick to the resin) then stretch it back to your new enclosure you just glassed, and make it look all smooth =)

then just glass that, put some fiberglass resin on the INSIDE of the enclosure and a bit of fiberglass, or a 1\4" layer of kittyhair or duraglass will take the place of fiberglass matte.

then sand\fill\sand\skim\prime\sand yada yada.

cut the bottom of the center console to mount the amp up in that hole... get a piece of tinted plexiglass to hide the amp...

hopefully that gives you a good idea how to build it up =P

i wish i worked at a shop where i did this stuff. i really have some stuff i wanna try out.

*sigh*

 
Nice im going to lookinto that more may try to build a model out of cardboard first to get the basic layout of it then from there all the fun begins. Thanks for the idea i have a friend that may be able to help me on this hes not good and building but he would be good at the math part.

 
yep, thats basically how you build it. you will learn as you go. its really not too hard at all. just make sure you do it all in cardboard and then cut then test fit, then glass OUTSIDE //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif

it looks like it could be really sweet.

 
Dang I just played (throw it up) on my setup and all I have to say is dang that songs makes my l7 pound My hole dash sounded like it was going to rip of at parts in the song. Loudest system ive had so far i wounder whats its going to be like when i get both l7 in and run the kx1200.1 instead of the kx400.1 im using now.
