    do you pic up the lows well at 35hz tuning? I'm asking cuz the box that i'm going to have made starting this weekend is also tuned at 35hz. It looks almost exactly like your box. lol

    the 10's going to be getting HT duty for now.


    now on most hard hitting songs my rear view mirror just vibrates and points down. also at the shop while testing the box i noticed my gps just dancing on the windshield. :eek:

    it was so loud i had to yell at the top of my lungs to talk to the owner(in the pass seat) and i got that talking into a fan type of voice.

    Sweet!!! I would be very safe to say that you'll hit in the mid 40's then. whens the next comp in your area?

    I can't wait to get my 2 12's in. hearing your experience is getting me excited to get mine... 30 more days... the amps and subs and components were already shipped out from California.. I CAN'T WAIT!!!

    The Hifonics and Kicker are due for delivery today but they're already pre-sold. F*ckin' shipping company took ages to get them here. I changed the shipping company for my eD gear, I do hope they are a lot better. Cost me almost double from the other shipping company.

    30 days... I am going nuts. lol..

    The box for my wifes care will be done this weekend and I'll do the install over the weekend as well. I didn't have any power tools for the top of the box so i'm having someone do it for me. So all i'll have to do is FG the MDF to seal the box. Not a big job at all.

    I'll take some pics of the install over the weekend.

    its not that great. it was done after work on a whim.

    i would have hide the incoming power wire like the one going to the amp but the hinge is right under that and i couldnt get any closer.

    oh well. it cleaned it up a bit.

    looks pretty good. you know would look really good (if you had the space). push the box all the way back to the back of the seat and make another false floor for your nine.5.

    That would look sweet.

    lol. your better off than i am.. hehehe. at least you have your truck set up.lol

    I'm still trying to endure my 2 coax speakers in the rear.

    If you think about it though, all your going to see is the box in the back anyhow. keep it the way it is.

    How much did that box cost you? They made that real fast...

    Any vids???
