I am dumb... installed what do they look like? I have seen it but wasn't that interested. Sort of am now...

Here are some photos I have of Luke doing two E30s last spring

The first one (^) is a 12" V2 box, but yeah. These are only 4" deep at the top of the box. That take just about no space at all.

Guys, here is another great woofer at a decent price: (thanks to spotting by Jquirit) http://www.woofersetc.com/p8142/REFT...-Subwoofer.htm

I HOPE to get mine installed tomorrow. Box is painted, amps & X-overs are mounted & wired. Wiring to speakers & power cables tomorrow, as well as cutting out some seat foam. Pics will be posted. (I'm not lazy....just busy with projects that try to kill me)

[dinanm3atl]

Thanks for the photos. Is the little cut out there as standard fare? For mounting amps?

[quickervicar]

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.

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

[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.

That's what I did.

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.

any pics of the 10" box installed?

You mean the face?


The back is shown finished earlier in this thread.

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 ;)

[StereoInstaller1]

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

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