[QUOTE="LsGuy, post: 8731806, member: 681035"] Man you need some basic tools. You don't have to have a full garage, but $50 would get you setup with enough hand tools to get by. I couldn't imagine not having a screwdrive to install a sub in a box. As far as tools to build a custom box, I get that not everybody has a table saw, router, miter etc. But it was mentioned earlier that home depot will do specific cuts. If you had all your panel dimensions laid out you could literally have them cut it out for you. I think the first 2 cuts are free, and it's 50 cents a cut after. You may end up with like $15 in cut costs. A lot of people have had issues with their cuts not being super accurate, but the stuff they've done for me was at least close enough to work with. While you are there grab a tube of caulk, a couple of clamps and some wood glue. Totally doable. I had buck design a set of boxes for me running 6.5 inch subs. One per box. They will rattle the hell out of my mirrors. The box makes a huge difference. [/QUOTE]
