This will be the box, that will be mounted in the trunk.

The 4 holes you see are for the Focal subs (4x13cm).

Another look at how big the sub-box will be.

Now you see a MDF-shelf that will part the sub-box from the amplifier area.

About the partition, I’m thinking on some cool things, but I’m not entirely sure yet…

First I had the idea to work in the equalizer in one of the sun-blinders on the seiling, but they were too big for it. It’s a pitty, cause I liked the idea myself.

Now I’ve been working on the amplifier, and the more I see it, the more it grows on me.

I’ll have to make a new sort of high-tec bracket, but that shouldn’t be a problem I guess.

Here you can see it’s possible that I raise the equalizer a couple of more cm’s, and that too I liked!

As for the finishing inside the box, I chose 2mm thick aluminium.

I also let some folding work done, which is strong.

Milled out the holes for the subwoofers.

Mounted the speakers for the first time.

4 in a row

Oh so sexy that aluminum is. Are you using some kinda seal between the subs and the aluminum?

I really hate it that, where I’m working on the car now, I can’t take some descent pictures.

Sounds like you need to build a shop

Looks really good. Keep up the good work!!

Because I’m going to mount the equalizer onto the amplifier, I decided to make an aluminum plate.

First of all I drew out everything on a piece of MDF, 8mm thick.

The MDF will serve as a mold for the actually alu plate.

Here you can see how I started.

The piece is finished, and I’m happy with the result.

I sawed out the alu plate with the jigsaw, after that I taped it on the MDF.

Then I started to mill this with the copymill.

The result:

I just need to sand the edges…

Then I mounted the EQ on there with 4 screws, and layed it on the amplifier.

The busses won’t stay as in this setup. I’m going to let some made on the height I want.

Here you can see the amp also stand on “busses”. I did this to work away the cables.

For the first time, I timed how long I worked on this Aluminum plate.

Mill the MDF

Saw the Alu

Mill out the alu

This all took me about 5 hours…

But as you guys already know, I don’t give a f*k how long it took me, as long as the result is OK for me
