Cheers Paul edit lol PLY-BOI bahahahahahaha my ct.com.au stick is on the top of my window you just cant see it lol that wast he first thing to go on after the window tint.... both the stickers together cost me $50 as you can just see the start of it in the third picture. stuff it here is a picture of my back window ooops wrong one cheers to all L platers like me WOOHOO! get my P plates in march should be about the time i get my stereo and kit on Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

personally, i'd go at least 18mm MDF, and i'd probly double it up on the baffle board.

hmm ok then but i'll tell you how it goes when the subs go in i'll play the lowest tone i can find and if it falls apart or sounds ****house i'll let youse know how it goes

where is ur spare gonna go? the boot space looks too small for functionality

looks the goods mate! just a quick question, how come you have the subs off centre?

Quote: Originally Posted by xeturbo looks the goods mate! just a quick question, how come you have the subs off centre? well i started off marking them as dead centre but then my father complained about not being able to get the spare wheel out so i moved them to one side a little and built a folding door on the left hand side and i told him that if you undo the screws on the cover box fold the door open you can get the spare wheel out *but secretly you cant shhhhhhhh* but the door also heaps me as i have a small gap behind the boxes for the jack and a bottle of water and a small toolbox good idea i thought?

Looks good man, been thinking of doing something like this soon with mine. Quote: Originally Posted by 17YR_VL_B you can get the spare wheel out *but secretly you cant shhhhhhhh* At risk of sounding like your old man, you should make that spare wheel a bit easier to get out, imagine it is pissing down with rain, late at night, your in a rush to get somewhere and you get a flat (trust me, it happened ) would you really want to stand there unscrewing your setup mean while rains ruining the MDF, wetting the subs. If you can't get your spare out you might as well leave it out, atleast then you can have the extra storage space. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
