Fiberglass is key...

well I was planning on putting subs into my spare tire compartments.. but ive since given up on that idea.. I like my tire.

anyways, ive found my answer in fiberglass, after reading thrrougha couple dozen how-to guides I think itd be a pretty fun project.


anyways, now we have to worry about placement.

im planning on buying an MTX 12" from a friend. where would you guys suggest putting it in the car? how much volume am I looking for for a 12"? anyone every made a custom box?

thanks for the info guys

do a search for glassman's custom forums... it's a great fiberglassing source. I'm currently working a custom glass box for my 2 10" audiobahns for my FD. I'll be taking pictures of my progress. As of right now though all I have finished are the speaker rings... right now I'm too busy working on a custom latch set for my targa top.
