looks good will be good to see it finished, my girl worries when i get bored had a set of 6.5" speakers lying in the house so decided id see where i could fit them in today had a space above my 8" ones that really needed filled so cot it all cut out and fitted them in there, that 4 x 12" subs, 1 set 6x9s, 4 x 8" components, and the 6.5" set, mmm now im thinking what else to do.

Well had a day doing the passenger side box, took ages getting the lines right and this is near as damn it i was very impressed witht the fit, i'm not chippy but want to continue to do everything my self so gave it a go.... here's the results... :D

 

 

 

Heres the cover for the amp rack, need to cut out the perspex windows and was toying with the idea of cutting out a 300zx or maybe a Z logo and having it light up... but not sure yet..... oh it's going to be white leather too...... :D

nice looking job you've done there mate. On a side note, i have access to a waterjet cutter at work and have 3mm thick lexan (like perspex only stronger and uv protected so doesn't go milky after a while). im also a computer aided designer by trade so if you ask me nicely i could cut some fancy logo's out of lexan for you if you want.:wack: just a thought!

oooohhh sounds good, would have to think how to get it on to the Amp cover. what sort of designs can you do?

anything you want me ol fruit! i've made allsorts (out of working hours obviously!) from keyrings to portraits made from rubber... i'll see if i can find some pics of my handiwork and post them up for you mate. easiest way would be to send me a piccie of what you want and id, draw it up for you. Obviously there are limitations to what can be done but, i can normally find a way round it!

here's 2 that i've done, the rest of my piccies are at work so i'll upload some more later on

That sh!t hot bud..... looks good.....

some more!

picture made out of rubber

as you can see i can pretty much do anything, but there are certain things that i can't do. let me know if you would like me to have a look at doing something for you buddy.

mmmm i might be interested in something if you are up for it, when i get paid that is lol

Oi stop hi jacking my thread ;)

 

lol

yeah no probs mate, always happy to do stuff like this as its a break from the normal boring stuff that i normally do! anyway, i don't want this to appear that i've hijacked Darksides thread as it was originally about his sweet looking install! i may start a thread asking if anybody wants stuff doing but don't know how i would go about it as im not a subscribed member yet (will be soon) and don't want to get in trouble with all the nice peeps here!

iv already told darkside i like his lol just dont want it to be better than mine haha

you need to speak to Znut.. he's the TLO if you want to do this as a full time thing for members you'll need to be a trader......

It's ok everyone has there own tastes.. 15 subs and 400 sets of components is not for me... :D

 

i set up front and 2 sets at the rear, and 2 x 10's thats it....oh and the carputer install.. lol

thats the thing, i cant really do this full time, but can do it every now and again when i get time with work commitments an all that! but would be willing to do one for ya to help you with your install. i used to do a lot of car installs and made a few show worthy ones at that. i used to have a similar sort of set up in my old honda prelude. had 2 12" subs sat opposite each other with a false floor, raised about 90mm, with 2 amps under the floor with a perspex cover over the amps (with some fancy logos cut out by moi) so that you could see them. also had a beat activated strobe light hidden in the amp compartment which kinda looked pretty cool when the music was on, but probably looks a bit "Chavish" now! lol!:slap:

bud can you email me on the addy below, would be interested to chat about the sort of stuff you can do, would PM you but your not a subbed member ;)

Excellent work bud, making some 'in progress' sub boxes for the last few months :mac1: which means I've had a quick play and put em to one side in garage, lol. Anyway this morning I have decided its now urgent, just been doing a search and have a quick question for you. Do the boxes go beneath the plywood floor and replace the tool area of the boot?

cheers and cool build by the way :)

Yes, the floor only goes to the side of the boxes... there are also 3 studs either side that i got rid of.....TBH there are 2 large supports under the amp rack that i wanna bin as well but need a grinder or something to do it... it will then sink the amp rack lower and give me more space in the boot...

 

Anything else.. just ask...

Cheers bud, I just built a mock up this morning which is higher than yours and when i lifted my sub out of its current box the magnet was six inches deep, too big for the thing i had just made, guess what i said?...............

"That'll be a good fit ;)"

Errr... B0ll0x???? lol

 

?? but really my magnets are 7" and they fit fine.....?? hmmmm........

Did you take the spare out???
