New Truck, 2 15's, Temp System. **Glass,Plexi,LED's, Mostly Done

[c.director]

Soo many good build threads going on, I hope to add to it.

On to the pics:

My truck, just picked it up with 123,000 miles on it. It came with a cheap Head Unit(will be changing) and 4 JL Audio speakers, they sound plenty good enough for now.:

Along with my KnuKonceptz order:

Starting under the hood:

Had to get a last minute yellow top because my stock took a crap during the install!

0 Gauge with a 250 Amp fuse.

Running under the truck.

And finally into the cab.

Cab stripped with power, rca's and remote wires ran.

Alpine HU going in (CDE-121)

Start of the false floor:

It started to get dark at this point, but I have a level false floor in:

A better shot of the floor, and putting a riser in the middle.

Floor completed:

I had originally planned on keeping a middle seat:

Speaker rings cut:

I could find a proper bit and didn't make the rings big enough, so I only got a small rabbet, maybe it'll help lol:

Back to the floor, a spacer to make it set level, use the stock battery as a weight!

Bottom and two sides of the sub box cut and layed in, now were starting to see it!

More cutting:

Box assembled for the first time:

A proper rabbet:

Speaker ring set:

The purple line is where I had to cut to make a better shape:

Fleeced:

These are for 15's, I know its not a lot of airspace (it will be sealed) but the subs will be inverted and foam added. The subs are Audiobahn AW1571T. This is a temp system until I can afford some real gear. Though I have been impressed with them as far as performance to cost ratio.

Here's an example of how they will look inverted:

Both Fleeced:

and all set in, with some wiring holes drilled and amps placed:

Thats all for now, i'm beat and gonna get some sleep soon, more when I get off work tomorrow!

Alright some more pics! didn't get near as much done as I wanted, the weather made it take forever. Started glassing.

Started with just a layer of resin:

Then went to the inside for some wiring:

Terminals are all soldered! it was a pain to solder them inside the cab with a torch.

Grounded.

Fused D-Block wired for now.

Almost all wiring complete:

and finally laying some glass down

First layer not the best looking, but all in time

Stayed tuned for more updates, i'm trying to get it done as fast as i can, i'm ready for some bass!

Looks good, I like the rabbet idea

[c.director]

Thanks guys. More tonight I should start glassing and hopefully get it playing.

Looks good, I like the rabbet idea

I actually got that idea from another build on here haha It's good, but a hand stapler makes for a mess no matter how you do it.

It's easy man, if you can build MDF boxes you can fiberglass.
