Omega5002 Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2013 Though sadly, here's the bad news, the box didn't fit, I didn't measure the trunk opening or back opening when I designed this box, only the inside, so I couldn't get it in, Would have worked if I built the box inside, but that was a tough weekend for me, you couldn't imagine what I was going through, I almost wanted to give up car audio, and destroy this box, but after I got back up on my feet I saw this. been there done that. measure twice cut once. could have been worse though. Nate with his way of saying things brought me back up on my feetSo, I uninstalled everything, and planned to start overBefore I build a new box, I have this goal- Rewire everything- Reorganize the wires- Relocate the ground to a better ground that I foundI also designed a new box that would slide in through the backChevyboy95 was nice enough to sketchup this for me, though he told me to use less dowels 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
