Here's mine. I've finished making the box, but not got the money to buy a sub and amp yet. I'm gonna put a single Alpine 10" Type-R in there, not too fussed about having massive bass, just enough to add some low notes. The sub is mounted below the perspex screen and the inside of the box will be lit up by some sort of red light, to match the red cooling fans.

uh oh! design flaw!!! looks like you built this so you can lay your t-top bag over it... only problem is that will directly block those cooling fans!

try putting some spacers around the fan holes to lift the bag up enough to allow airflow.

otherwise... that's one hell of a box

i'm seeing some pretty nice set ups. Well here's the set up I built before it was all stolen. *******s. took me a lot of time sweating in the heat. like 2 hours here and there for 2 weeks.

It was awsome. enjoy

Not a great pic but I biult it at least. Sorta like Crazy3rdgen's

Brett

Crazy, I love the contrast of your setup.... but it was crying, "steal me! steal me!"

maybe next time make it a cherry-colored, or black box?

Yeah i tried to tie in the color of my paint with it, and actually in person it was an eye catcher. Night pics are weird. everything was cut as 1 peice so it all fit together. Like the front was 1 peice, the top was 1 peice, and the back was 1 peice. It took me awhile to get everything to line up customly flush. Heres a pic to show, i kinda miss it but it was going to weigh me down a good bit.

nice... so what do you have now?

a busted door, no headunit, no center console, no subs, 1 t-top messed up, no lock in the door, a broken window which i just replaced. it sucks bad man. I planned to sell those 2 15's and get 1 12" L7 ported in the back with a kx600.1. guess its not happening know tho ya kno. it sucks so baddddddddddd

Damn dude...that's gotta be stomach turning! Ppl have NO respect for another person's things. Buncha haters and broke @$$ fuks out there man...Gotta watch it at all times and always hide your setup if you can. Don't go in messed up neighborhoods or around ppl that look suspicious either. Also, might be someone you know! Good luck on the new stuff!

sounds like you parked your car near new orleans.

well, my box isnt in my car yet, im waiting to save up for a good amp. But i fiberglassed my box and painted the same color my car will soon be. There will be 3 audiobahn 10s going in here.

pretty much, i just wanted to show off my hard work and the color of my car.. lol

yea vibrant i kno how that is. You need feedback from people to give you motivation to keep you going lol.. that color is wicked. awsome.

If my car had paint like that, I'd be hittin' the ladies off left and right!

good luck on that!

lol thanks.

It also changes to an orangish goldish color. Im just waiting for my car to get in the shop to get everything shaved and then it will get painted.

pearl, eh?

yeah its from PPG's vibrance line, new stuff that just came out recently. (hence the name Vibrant_camaro)

Here is another pic with some different colors.

heres mine did it quickly in 1 weekend just so thats its in the car...love to have tunes while driving.

Here some pics of mine 2 x 10'' sub. I'd like to keep as much free space as possible for long trips
Not finished yet, but just idea for F-body audio builders. Some more photos soon - right now engine rebuild in progress..., so car audio needs to be postpone.
Siwir

wow, that is genius

vibrant, how much is paint like that per gallon?? it's amazing!

siwir... amazing, I didn't know you could remove the glovebox side very easily...

pretty small airspace, but I'm curious how they sound...

looks sweet no matter what

thats nice... i was thinking of sumthing like that.... really clean...

im prolly gunna end up doing a FG set up that hides the subs... my car got broken into as some of u know so the next set up will be hidden very well

It is a 3-stage paint job, and the color that goes down first is $964 a gallon and the next color is $308 a gallon.

I’m very glad that you like it. BTW: It’s not finish yet. All plastic pieces will be covered by yellow leather soon I hope $$$
ScrapMaker: Well it was not easy to put the sub in place. I’ve spend lots of time on details; however I'm very glad to obtain the goal. The subs are very easy removable (under them there is place for amps, tools, etc). The airspace so not so big, but with close hatch bass effect is amazing! The only problem is that I had to change the phases of one sub in order to get rid of "silent wave" effect due subs position against each other.
Saigon_Bob: When the Haich is closed subs are almost unvisible that’s another advantage

or FL

oof, how much is all this gonna take you back?

Well, the paint was a lil over $1,000 for my car, Im hoping i have enough, because well i wont beable to get anymore of it. My boyfriend works at a paint store, and got me down to the very last drop of it. and well, i didnt have to pay $1,000, i got it fairly cheap.

too lucky!

what about bodywork or other labor?

Well, my boyfriends dad owns a shop. LOL, so i pretty much have it made.

bah, everyone has mad hookups but me... I have to learn to paint by myself.

Dzien dobry? Jak są wy? That is an awesome set-up, same idea I had a few years ago for my Firebird (before I stupidly got rid of it) - but I was planning on using fiberglass so I could keep some of the curves so it would look stock.

got a quick Q.

I bought the well sub box, and with the subs im going to be pushing at max 2000watts. What effect does this have on the rear hatch window?

nothing whatsoever.

other than the fact that you'll need some sort of sound deadening material in the taillight area, otherwise the locking mechanisms, and the taillights themselves will rattle to no end.

None...

also... "max 2000 watts"... are we talking Lightning Audio or Lanzar or something here?

No i got two thunder 8000 10's. Im still trying to find an amp

Only a few subs can take 1000 watts.. those are definitely not them.

it's actually 400wrms

even 2000wrms couldn't hurt the glass, unless you had some weird setup.

yes they're 400watts rms and 1000peak

im only looking to push 7-800watts. i was just curious of the hatch

You would have to replace the front windows, and windsheild with titanium, weld them shut, and seal the car up like you would a vacuum tank... before the rear hatch would even begin to feel pain.

You would also need some serious woofers/amps to do any damage.

So it looks like the coast is clear.

Thanks


Hey Siwir do you have plans for your boxes?

Well, since we have very little numbers of cars in Poland I didn't make any plans of it. But I have some photos from construction period as well as I can create basic plans for you if you're interested. Boxes are easily removable, so it's not problem to make post-documentation. Just let me know.
Siwir
BTW: jrmaatta you should rather say “Dzien dobry? Jak siê masz ?” but I’m really impressed. Do you have any polish family roots ?

Hey! Siwir. Both of my great grandparents were from Warsaw, Poland. I can say a few words, but wouldnt come near spelling them. We have polish food for christmas every year. mmmm

im polish too and my dad and grandparents live in warsaw. when i was there this summer i saw a blac iroc and a brown/red rs. there aren't very many third gen's there. i love your setup siwir. if you could post up how you made them that would be awesome. wszystcy tutaj napewno beda bardzo wdzieczni! thanks again!

I was pretty sure that spelling was correct (what you put), but poltran.com told me that other way?? I couldn't remember how to spell it, heh. My parents say that I'm not Polish, but everyone thinks that I am... weird, huh? I've been working at a grocery store for some time now (last day is tomorrow) and all the Polish people come up to me b/c they need somebody that understands them, and they think I'm Polish, heh.

This pic is realllly old (Summer 04), but it gives you a pretty good idea. My hair is cut a lot shorter now.

I see Your Car is on the bottle huh nice box by da way

This is in my 2000 camaro and the box is sitting on top of the t-top slots, so I have enough room under the box to store the amplifier. The flap still closes so I can put some things in the trunk still without having it slide into the subs (and so people may not know I have them, so they dont get stolen).





I have had this setup for awhile now and am kinda looking for a change. I have the whole trunk and lid lines with dynamat xtreme, but there is still not stopping the entire trunk from rattling. Ideally, I would like to put the subs inside of that hump in the trunk, but I know that the gas tank probably takes up all that space. Does anyone know for sure to verify this?? Or if someone has other suggestions of eliminating some of that rattle better?

I found in the doors there is a plastic grille that has small rubber pieces that flap when you hit the hard bass notes. I just ripped the rubber pieces out, and my bass is clean.

I have 2 15" L7 solobarics And a memphis Mojo amp...There are alot of great ideas here. Its giving me too many ideas...lol... I will keep you posted on the out-come

Yeah, many people do this... it would be nice to just cut them so they look clean, like speaker ports instead

What are the dimensions on that?

where did you get this or did you make it and if so what are the dimensions?
