not bad. looks like a good fit. kudos for not being afraid of building your own stuff and paying for an overpriced box...now, all you need to do is clean up that wiring and you'll be good!

Re: built and installed my speakers :)

^^That was a little understated. It looks like you have a decent amount of work ahead of you with that mess of wires. If I were in that situation, I think I'd space the amp up a little, run all of the wires directly under the amp and then straight back (like to the back of the car) and down. Just an idea...

Anyway, good job on building yourself a box. You left out the most important thing, how's it sound?

Re: built and installed my speakers :)

oh ya, it was only there because my old speaker box was right on top of that and it was the closest spot, i haven't fixed any wiring for this box yet( like hiding the wires and such)
