Hello all... I'm fairly new to this site but wanted to share my enclosure project. I got this car for free about a year ago from a family member with a blown motor. After getting it up and running, I wanted to upgrade the audio. I build/create systems for a living so I knew I needed something right away.
I had a basic box laying around but it took up more trunk space then I'd like and it just didn't seem to "fit". So I made a fiberglass enclosure on the passenger side to house my 10" Alpine type-R. It sounds great, it was built around the subs recommended air space, and frees up a lot of trunk space. It covers the light but I plan on adding an LED light to it.
I'm currently making one that installs in the floor that pivots up on hinges so I can access the spare tire... and will have pics of that up soon.
Anywho, here are some pics. Let me know what you think.
