Let me know the paint code you use so I can get some myself. Also what color vinyl you used earlier in the build to wrap the AC delete (I think that is what you used it for).

 

I plan on taking the vinyl into the hardware store and matching it as close as I can with a rattle can off the shelf. There is only going to be about 30 square inches total exposed area on the sub box which will be right next to the seats and no one will see it.

And as for the vinyl I simply went to my local upholsterer and had them look through there stock until I found one that matched my grain pattern and color. So I really can't tell you what color that is either.

Sorry I couldn't be more help with that

 

This is gonna be soo wicked.

Are you still driving your truck around?

 

Ha ha ya I am. I will try and take a pic of the truck its almost comical.

 

Haha! I bet it's fun.

 

Ya fun that is the word for it

It sucks I have no arm rest to put my arm on, it rattles because its not held down with all its fasteners, it looks terrible and did I mention I have no arm rest.

 

I remember the days of driving cars partially assembled to school.Once I broke my drivers seat and couldn't get it bolted to the floor so I drove with it just sitting in there. When I'd hit the brakes it would move forward and I had to use my clutch foot to keep from going into the steering wheel.

 

This is ALMOST inspiring me to go start on my chit. One of these days...


Watching for final pics

 

Haha, I feel for ya.

 

Well, I did not get much accomplished with the box today just a couple layers on the bottom to make it enclosed also go the holes cut out for the plexi and the sub. I am going to be letting it cure the next 2 days before I start painting it. I am about 3/4 of the way through my install of everything however so that is a good thing as well. I can't wait to get it all in and running.

 

I can't wait to see it!

 

Day 7:

Well over the last couple of days I have not got a lot accomplished on the box itself. I will be getting another chance tonight to work on the box. However, I have been working on the main install of everything while I let the box cure a little before I sand and paint. So I figured I can show the other random install pics I have, just to give you guys an update and so you know I am not slacking and leaving the suspense build on this box for no good reason. Here they are the install pics:

Box top cut out for the plexi:


Test fitting the rings:






Mounting the tweeter pods:

 

Sound dampening (have some clear plexiglass to seal off the big holes in the lower portion of the doors):

 

Amp mounting (still have to route wires and permanently mount the wires) :







Tonight I will be working on the box; I am going to be putting one more layer of glass on the box just for added measure. I am also hoping to get it sanded down and ready to go for paint tomorrow. I am hoping that in the next couple of days I can have this box in the truck and playing.

 

Very nice.

What are your amps mounted to? How much total deadener (sqft) did you use?
