Sold the BLs, so doing one 15" BTL for now. Original plans were 5 cubes @ 29hz, but thanks to me trusting home depot, it will end up 4.5cubes @ 31hz. This box is just something to have, no carpet or paint.

The home depot wood, that should all be 48" wide, but they like to make them different cuts :verymad:

All the wood cut..

Port Wall together...

Still waiting on a recone and basket if anyone at Fi every emails me back...but the BTL motor compared to a Sundown SD-1

Pics of it being built... BTW anyone that doesn't have clamps or access to a nail gun, I HIGHLY reccomend these screws, they countersink and predrill by them selves, can't ask for much for in a screw.

Not sure how you guys space your ports perfectly, but I just cut some small pieces the exact width of the port and place them in and screw the port.

Flush trim bits FTW...

Also another trick I use... I put on the back last so when I router everything out, all the saw dust falls right out, instead of having to vaccum it all out behind the port n ish.

Painting the port:

Got bored today, so I ended up making an amp rack for both amps.

Old box out, nice lil mess back there lol.

Spare piece of 1/4" mdf I used for a amp rack in a Dodge Ram, turned out to be exactly perfect size, couldn't be an 1/8th more exact lol.

The 100.4 slides in attached to its bottom piece, I'm suprised this fit the first time around.

And where I left off for now, gunna make some trim pieces and still need the **** sub lol, and re-route some wires.

Yup, I will have a false floor, false wall, and side panels as well, basically in the end all you will see is that sexy motor =D. Vids will come soon enough, don't want to take any right now because I still need an alt.

I threw the box out the other day without even thinking, I willg et a pic of it when I build the next box. Anyways

Lil' more.... Yesterday I ripped EVERYTHING out. Rear deck getting re-done and doors getting wrapped. Also re-wired car, and I might finish the sound deadning and do the floor.

Anyways, part of the wiring done... Like I said this build is attention to detail! Speaker wires wrapped in techflex, each wire heatshrink and color coded, then labeled.
