Got the DD-1 in today and have all of my gains correctly set.

Now for the good stuff. Its been put off and put off but the time has finally come. Tomorrow I start on sealing off my trunk. I will be doing a box frame first to make sure the box will fit in the trunk and once I know it will fit I will be building the box. After that I will be buying more FatMat and putting it on my rear doors and rear dash. I will be posting lots of pictures and if anyone has ideas or advise, my ears are open.

Today I built a mock up frame for the new box to seal in the trunk. Went to Home Depot and got some 2x2's and made a quick frame.

I had some space to add some depth and length onto the box so I made adjustments in Torres.

Next step was to go get some MDF and since I still had plenty of light left I went ahead and made the parliamentary cuts.

The wood to the right will be used for sealing the box in the trunk and the wood to the left is the wood for the box.

Tomorrow will be sanding and making the finishing cuts.

When the weather permits I will be putting one or two coats of fiberglass resin on the outside of the box to make sure it's all sealed up. Wire and terminals will be in Thursday and so will the MegaMat.

You gonna carpet or paint the box?

I plan on getting carpet that match what's in the trunk so it's all the same color and blends right in.

Realized that my pictures didn't show the bracing some here's one now

It rained like crazy today in NC like a lot if other places. I was able however to get a garage to work in. I out down some fiberglass resin on the edges of the box just to ensure a nice tight seal.

The box fits like a glove iny car but a tight glove. There's a bolt that's keeping me from pushing the box all the way forward so tomorrow that's being cut off as well as the trunk light assembly that makes it difficult to put the box in the trunk. Tomorrow (well I guess today technically) the MegaMat comes in and I will be putting that in the rear dash and doors. I'm shooting to have everything done within 2 weeks from yesterday so stay tuned, updates daily.

Had to remove a bolt and mounting bracket for the box to slide in smoothly.
