Subwoofer Box Build: Spring 2010

[Gerta]

+1 on the location!

Luke - congrats on a potential move! Where's this palace going to be at?

[Tuanies]

the 10" box is too shallow to port through the rear deck. You need a minimum of 6" depth at the top of the box, and you MUST have a 15" height to make a seal on the ski pass.

One left this round, boys.

OH!: I may be moving again, but this time to a house out on the country that has a 24X48 shop....pray for me!

Where at?

[Jean]

I would be all over this (plus I already have a nos polk db sub sitting on a shelf for months)if my car actually had a stupid ski pass...it doesn't as it's a very early 84. great price!

Are these being made with the deck ports or the ski pass ports?

IIRC the 12" ones are through the deck and the 10" port through the ski pass

Yeah, what the hell, about 20 hours each way? Sure, what the hell...

[Rodoni]

E36? Fold down?

What does the phrase "road trip" mean to you?

Yes fold down.

"Road trip" means I get my fucking ass up there and have the greatest stereo guy ever do my shit right. Just like the e30 ;)

You mean the face?


The back is shown finished earlier in this thread.

I see. Could just mount amps to back of box... hrmmmm

You can also be a lazy ass like 99.99% of all the installers in the world and just upholster the box. Making that panel takes like an hour or two and looks SO much nicer.

I charge about $150 to do that, and most of my customers are happy to pay it.

That's what I did.

[quickervicar]

Yup. That's what the photos show. I'll be doing my own cover frame tomorrow/next week. I'd really like to keep trunk cargo away from my wiring.

Luke supplies a paper template of the cross-section of the trunk. It is up to you to create a cover-plate w/ or w/o amp cutouts. He even supplies the carpet to cover it with.
