Alright, so I'm told the amps should be back tomorrow. I'm building the amp rack today and getting everything pre-wired and ready to plug and chug.

I'm also making a very strong fiberglass headliner in place of my old one. It's half as long and looks stock. I'll post pics soon.

Thanks for being patient!

You glassin the front headliner or over the back? The front would be cool especially if you can blend it down to the rearview mirror area for your monitor. If you decide on a-pillar pods, I have good pics of mine in my build log for reference.

...Keep in mind that your front roof above the windshield is gonna flex bad with 8k, mine does with only 1500.....make that part really strong or it's gonna crack!

I mentioned your build to a friend and he said " I hope no one is standing behind that PT when the rear window blows out! :shok: haha...keep us posted on the testing.

Ok so I'm still waiting on the amps, but here's what I've been doing in the mean time...

I made a new fiberglass headliner for the front half of the roof on front of the wall. It's very thick and lined with Hush Mat on the back. Here's the making of:

And now for the tier design I came up with for the amps...

Posted Image

This is the idea behind it. It will all be wrapped an clean once its done.

Posted Image

Here's the bottom tier with room for both amps.

Posted Image

And here's the top tier. Line driver, fuse blocks, and amp.

Posted Image

Hooked up for now...

And waiting on the amps before putting in the top level..

I'm tryin to keep up without these amps guys! All I really have left is sealing and little pretty additions. But as soon as they come in....

i like the way you did the headliner. you made it look easy. great work

when are you expecting the amps in?

Well I expected them back yesterday because that's what they told me, but I haven't received a call yet. I'm trying to get a hold of my RA number so I can deal with Memphis myself. I'm tired of these bogus shops jacking me around.

Man, I was skeptical at first about this build, but you blew me away so far

even with the entry level subs, I know that thing is gonna pound like crazy

I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

One thing I simply do not understand about this build is how it is working at all without the back area being sealed up. I believe I saw something about infinite baffle and then I saw something about making a fiberglass bubble. Please explain how the pressure is being kept in the vehicle. I can't fathom the hatch is staying closed enough to give you a good back pressure.
