Custom sub/amp setup in trunk

david01130 · 07-05-2010, 11:56 AM

What do you guys think of a custom amp/sub enclosure similar to the one below? I currently built two custom sub boxes that fit on either side of the trunk in those little compartments behind the wheels with the amp mounted up under the rear window where the speakers are. I am thinking about doing something a little more custom. A little more "Pimp My Ride" but not over the top. Something thats clean and neat. I like the idea below. I will probably need to take out the spare. Any thoughts or suggestions?

So I got started on this yesterday. I am about halfway done. I am going to pick up some of the fabric, plexiglass, and try to find some LED rope stuff. Hopefully I will have it finished or almost finished tonight.

I was going to do this to mine too. But as much as I use my car I would be afraid to take out the spare. So I thought about mounting the subs far enough back to where I can still get the spare. I was going to buy the mdf boarding or whatever its called, but didnt have the tools or time to start it. Post up some pics tho.

Yeah I thought about that too. I did take out the spare though. Someone told me the spare does not even fit over the front Saleen brakes. I dont know if thats true or not. But I can always call up AAA if I get a flat.

I got most of it done today. I just ran out of carpet/felt stuff. Hopefully the store is open tomorrow.

Oh yea I still got the stock brakes so im good still, for now. Where did you get the carpeting at?
