Guys- any thoughts on this? Besides the lack of portability, is my thinking sound?

 

I wish I could make a custome fiberglass enclosure for my car too

 

This may sound stupid but if your leaving the mold in the well way did you even make a bottom section? I thought you wanted to make the box removable?

 

i'd vote that making a bottom section was a good move -- it allows for custom look (ie. sanding and painting the bottom), plus is going to be more airtight than the well would have been alone.

 

I was hoping to be able to remove the top plate w/ subs for those few times it might be advantageous(track, living out of my car ). Knight, I will probably glass around and over the top plexiglass piece after all as you had suggested.

Yes, the bottom is made for looks, but I was also worried about hearing "tinny-ness" from the exposed sheet metal. Was that not a legitmate concern?

 

Look at picture #6 though... why worry about leaving room for the wiring and then fiberglassing that part into a part that you can't remove to run the wiring??

Mines a custom sealed box and its pretty custom... all FG... top and bottom...




I must be missing something here...

 

Hold on I'll upload a pic of mine before we stuck it into the car....

maybe I jumped the gun... I do that sometimes... but I'm from MA so ya know....

 

I'll have to get them up later... my brother must have the CD with the install on it at his house... sorry

A few?'s, what is the amount of air apace you need for your sub/subs, and what type of subs are they?
