Measure, figure, remeasure, refigure, build some, remeasure, refigure, repeat I promise when you are done you will thank me go totally OCD on that shit!Sounds like a plan. I'll have to double check my measurements Friday morning and then calculate some more. I want to try and get all the wires ran and the batteries somewhere in the cargo area. I'm thinking behind right behind the back seats because they are sloped and the batteries would be close to lining up with the top of the seats. The only problem with this is that if I want to add batteries it will be hard to in the future.

SMZ2 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 No sweating here it was to cold to sweat haha. I had to get lowes to rip part of it so it would fit. I just hope I can use the left over for the rest of my build.

SMZ2 Posted December 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2013 This is what I did with the MDF... This is only a dry fit. I will make the battery bank permanent with some titebond. I will also be using the factory locations for mounting hardware to secure the mdf floor. The floor is uneven in some places so I will have to find a way to solve that after securing the mdf floor. The open section near the door is an easy gap to fix since there is a plastic piece that goes there. This floor will be the base of the wall. I am using a skil saw with a rip guide and these smaller pieces were tough to cut with this combo so there is a slight evenness in the battery bank but it is not very noticeable. Also the mdf is only so wide that is why there are small gaps on either far side. I cut out sections for the wheel well with my jigsaw. Once the sides of the wall are in the wheel wells will be glassed into the box. The plan is to run all the wire when I have a full free day to strip the interior. I have not decided how to set up the amps yet but I am thinking of some way to have the 4 channel above or near the batteries without being anymore intrusive to the wall, the bass amps will probably be on the back of the wall. I still have about 25" of depth to work with even though I added the battery bank to the front. This just seemed logical, shorter runs and I have a sharp angle on my back seats. Thank you for taking your time to read all of my thoughts haha.
