First Try At Building a Box

Well here it is! My first try at building a box. What do you think? Any tips for the next one or even this one? I still have to make a filler panel for the top of the amp and build a cover for the cap.
Pioneer DEH P740P
Two 10" Alpine R subs
JBL 1200.1 amp
1 fraud cap
XM radio under center seat
12 disc changer under passenger seat

Not a bad looking box there firemx220. It looks a lot better than my first two did. The main thing is take your time, measure 12 times and cut once. Looks like you did it right.

Very nice job, nothing like doing well your first time out. Once ya start doing your own you will never pay somebody to rob ya for an install.

Great job, especially on the carpet. I can't see the seams.

Thanks everybody! I see some nice work on those boxes! I just tried to take my time and not rush it. The next warm day I have off I will finish it up. It sounds great!

I got it from a local audio shop, but I have a friend who got the same color from crutchfield. It is charcoal grey if I remember right.
