then the box build.

 

[dan5505 10+ year member]

tried a jig saw for the hole, but it took forever, had to switch to the rotozip

threw on a layer of polyurethane to seal it up nice

in the back of the isuzu with the seats up

and with the seats down.....

The exterior of the box looks like shit right now. I still need to order some carpet. I'm thinking about goin with charcoal. Also, it would have been nice to go over the port opening with a router, but i dont own one.

Does it sound good?

yeah, sounds great. i was a little worried that i went overboard, ive never owned a sub this large. im happy with it so far

flip it so it aims back to the rear of the vehicle for best results.

rotozip ftl, get a jigsaw.

box looks good

Face the rear and it will be louder //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

edit: listen to 60. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

i dont really need it to be any louder, its just a daily driver, ill give it a try though

yes, try facing the back and let us know your results. should be a noticeable gain.

pretty nice build.congrats.

thanks, its still kinda wavy in places though. everyone is right, a good jigsaw would have worked better, but the one i was using sucked ***, i would have been there all night trying to cut through 1 1/2 inches

looks good bro, nice pistola also

yeah, that was my other Christmas present //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif
