good work so far.

why the 3sixty.2 though?

beware the expanding foam in the side cavities- if it expands too much or you use too much it can dent the piss out of your car from the inside- I've seen it several times before on cars that come in to my shop (Honda dealer) Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Oh yah, I'm aware //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I put it in about 2-3" at a time... it's going to progress very slowly to avoid too much expansion and problems setting up (it won't set up if you put it too deep at once). Good call, though, I'm sure it's a common oversight.

What do you mean? My HU doesn't offer the sort of adjustment I want, although it's pretty decent. The 3Sixty.2 has dual 31 band EQ on two channels, dual 27 band EQ on two others, 15 bands for the sub, VERY flexible time alignement, and fully adjustable slope and frequency crossovers with bandpass capability. Thats why //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I had trouble getting mat(damp and the cheaps edead ebay stuff) to stick to sludge, you have same problem?
I just assume it was user error considering it was first time + it was me and my 4y/o who kept interrupting lol.

It seems to be sticking quite well for me, actually. Not sure what happened with yours //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Let's see some fiberglass //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

My lack of mad glass skillz may come into play... I might actually not be using any glass at all in this install until I get to the kick panels. Most likely the box will be 3/4" birch plywood all around... maybe a glass top if I can't come up with a good one out of solid wood.

We need to have an install fest, I would love to work with Mr. Mustang. Would be interesting to see what we could come up with //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

You'll have that opportunity in the not-so-distant future //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

* Battery wiring coming together. 1/0 and 4 AWG battery to chassis grounds, 4 AWG alternator wire, 4 awg factory dist center wire, factory starter wire. All Knukonceptz wiring and terminals. I have two 4 AWG engine block to chassis grounds not pictured.

* The rear floor is moving along. Edead V1SE(2) here.

* Inside one of the hollow side cavities to be filled with foam. I used Peel & Seal in here since it will be forever pressed in there with foam.

* Passenger side cavity is built half way up now. It's getting there.

* Inside passenger side cavity with expanding foam.

* Beginning the driver side cavity.

If you're using "Great Stuf" spray foam try this stuff instead. It will likely save you time and money. http://www.uscomposites.com/foam.html

Good job on everything so far.

Sweetness! I need to start expanding foaming on my hatch. ****ed thing rattles too much. That Honda better not rattle AT ALL after all of this.

BTW: Battery and wiring in the engine bay looks good man. 'wonder where you got that idea from? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Good link there //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

I've already started with Great Stuff so it may throw me off to use a different material to finish. That looks like a great alternative, though, thanks for the tip!
