The new process: box for 15" L7

Well after fighting to fit it in the trunk, it just wouldn't work. So popped the top back off and it went in. Although I couldn't get the drill to screw the back down super good. So I'm hoping the blocks will work, but if not the whole rear deck cover has to come out again and screw it down through the speaker holes.

That isn't how close the box will sit towards the back of the trunk.

if you use lots of wood glue and heavier blocks, then it should be okay without screws.

why not just use a hand screwdriver then? your not going to try and leave the blocks on there at all times are you?

Step ahead of you lol. It in such a tight spot though it hard to get a lot of pressure down on the screw. I'm letting this dry and gonna go check on it in a little while and see how it did. Blocks are just to hold it down some while the glue drys.

or even a ratchet and screwdriver bit, im sure it can be done. especially since you already have the holes drilled out just waiting for screws

I took the rear deck out and put some screws in. Problem solved. I'll get a vid in a few mins or so.

My camera sucks andwon't show any of the flex, but I got one with the remote on the trunk lid, only thing you can notice really in a vid doing anything. Gotta upload quicktime for the camera to load the vid.

You put the resin over the caulking?

No problems when you did that?

Nope, didn't have any problems.

Ok thanks.

I wanted to resin the inside of my box as well but I already caulked the inside of the box and thought the resin might eat it or something.
