Lbox88 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 After this vid I did another coat or two while everything was still kinda tacky and I think I am happy with the front now Looks good to me nowGoing to let this cure for 24 hours and then cover it up and start working on the bedliner coat on the rest of the box. Once I get a new sub later I can do a better paint job than this, but having this old box to work on as a tester will help so I don't fudge things up on the new one.

Lbox88 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Going to go pick up a new battery after work. Bought a Diehard Advanced Gold AGM online from Sears. It is a rebadged Deka Intimidator. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_02850747000P?prdNo=23 UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lbox88 Posted April 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Paint is looking nice, but why didn't you fill in your screw heads mang? really couldve made it sweet all smooth and piano black I had built this box last year and it was my first one, so lets just say the lines on it aren't the best lol. I wanted to more or less use this as my test panel to see what I can do paint-wise and how well before I go through the trouble of filling the holes, rounding edges, and sanding on the next box. I plan on getting a new woofer this summer still, and when I do, THAT box I am going to pour my soul into. Well, whatever soul I have since you know gingers supposedly don't have one lol.

Lbox88 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 Flipped the box, threw some primer on the bottom, and I'm about to go out now to hit it with the bedliner. This part of the build is almost there UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotdog Posted April 4, 2012 Report Share Posted April 4, 2012 You can get two 1/0 wire through the factory grommet. I did not think the radio was all that hard, and now that you have been in there once you should be a lot quicker the next time around. I can get into the dash in about 5 minutes or less now. If you wan I can post pics of where I put the 1/0 through (NEW) 2004 F-150 Build Log -->http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/192208-hotdogs-f-150-build-log/ 2003 Mercury Mountaineer Build Log --> http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/114380-hotdogs-2003-mountaineer-build-log-20-removed/page__gopid__1602379#entry1602379 2008 Equinox Build Log --> http://www.stevemead...g/#entry1475764 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you wan I can post pics of where I put the 1/0 through That would be awesome if you could!!!! my biggest issue I think was just that it was shitty in comparison to my old malibu. then again I was comfortable with the malibu, where as with this I was afraid I was going to break something. Which side did you run your 1/0 on? Driver's side I assume? UBL | Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
