SocoJoe Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 So this was my first attempt at actually building my own boxes and all that shit. I don't even know why I built two seperate boxes, everyone told me to build it as one, but the whole getting the ports right for box seemed to confusing to attempt, so I went with 2 boxes like a nub. Anyway bring on the hate! The box already glued and screwed. Side view of one of the boxes with one of the subs. Terminal side. Front view. Them in my old vehicle, 00' Explorer Sport. Like I said was my first attempt at building my own boxes, and really my 2nd pair of subs I have ever owned, so let me know what you think, I already know the comments will flow for the design lol. Here is a video I shot a while back with them in my old vehicle, I just bought an 09 Jetta S about a month ago and the system is already in that, just have no pics or vids of them in that.

Beanz Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 so your boxes are sealed then? Quote That's why they don't deliver. Yer ass better go sit along the side of the road and wait. You can't expect them to travel up some dirt road in a hick / back woods town. Thats how horror movies start I explain things very simply and use analogies in terms of Pickles, and grape drink, pool noodles and jackhammers...if you can't put 2 and 2 together there man, There simply is not much more I can do.

Sampsonite Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 It doesn't look bad, but the 90° metal pieces holding your box down kill it Quote --Sampson 816-591-6592 www.kcrimshop.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know, but if those weren't there holding them down they would be moving all over the place in the back, that's why I screwed them down lol. And if it matters for anything I took those off when I switched to my Jetta.
