If they didnt want it stripping they shouldnt have used nuts and bolts

I personally always like boot builds where everything is built into the floor all all you can see is the sub and perhaps the amp through a perspex window.

Found this link which is similar(ish) to what I'm thinking of.

If you put a grille over the sub it keeps your boot usable too.

Are you after something fairly simple or would you prefer to fill the boot with subs, amps, monitors, power caps, etc, etc?

shaun, if you want a pair of mental subs and an 3000watt amp, email me

or add me to msn

Dave!

man my priorities have changed now buddy

ive two broken coops. need every penny to atleast fix one

i copied a guy called joske although it seems his turned out better! lol








i know its not really a build, but, what can you really do with one sub? and if you did what chris r is suggesting (although it looks well good) then where would you put your spare?

the box i built could've been smaller, which would have used the space better, but , this is my 1st attempt and ill probably look into making another wakier box in the future. i was thinking of making a box that would fit diagonally across the corner

Not sure if the pic will show but here's mine: -

It comes apart. have a can of that tyre weld but to be honest  I've never had to use the spare and the bulbs have not blown in 7 years.

well you could go for summit like Mark's yellow Bravo.... but it means loosing the rear seats.


or like mine!!!


















........

I'm as amazed as you Shaun but yes, never had to change a bulb. Then again, this is coming from the car that did over 60k on the same set of brake pads.

it does look good joske, but its not that i dont like copying, i just dont like having the same as everyone else.

its still an option though

Build it on the other side then.

I was gonna do a false floor but looking at how little room i would have after it was pointless.

My other option was to make a pyramid style box to fit in one corner with one sub but again that went out the window as I wanted to utilise both subs.

Changing a bulb in Oz's aint that hard. Pull back seats down and reach in Been there, done it (it used to be my build)

yeh i remember it being urs wimmy. but its alot of hassle though dont u think lol

I designed a boot build for my Bravo but never got around to completing it, it's was a false floor jobby on hinges so the spare was accessible.

In your case I'd chuck the tyre and the rest keeping only the towing eye, RAC cover and as Oz suggests some tyre weld.

Can you even use the standard jack under your car anyway?

iv got aa cover anyway and asfore the jack, i can but i have to wind it up with a pair of plyers and then once its past the skirt use the handle...hard work but better than being stranded

matt, do u still have the plans? im going to make a box for 2 10" and my amp. but need to know how to make a hindge etc

this was one of mine...



teh Subs and Amp that Dave is selling is my old gear, the plan was to build a sql comp spec system and should have been easily capable of 170 ish + db. to say they were brutal was an understatement...

Andy_sx

ps Dave, know the feeling all to well mate.

yep

i sold old coop, and now bought another and engines fooked.. so i bought another to break up for the engine. so technicly have 2 broke coops lol

so need to raise funds to have the engines swopped.

the subs have hardly been used its a shame really
