Default Pics of my custom box for 2 15's

Heres some pics of my center console I built for my dvd player(driver side.) And also some pics of the new box, not done yet. Still have to take the belt sander to the round part to knock down the high spots, and then bondo, and put a layer of glass on. Last pic is of the custom steel bracket I made to raise the rear seat, gives the 15's plenty of breathing room. Tell me what you think.

Very nice. What 15's? I went with one jl8w7 and thats plenty for me for now. I compete in sound quality so I don't need the 15's and there is too much money in the db drag cars/trucks. Love the console. What about cupholders????

The brackets are custom, I made them out of a 4"x4" steel tubing, cut them to what I needed and ground them down, painted them, then drilled them and got some stainless fasteners.

I mouneted the cup holders to the back of the console.



The subs are Concepts, I was going to go with W6's but these are basically the same exact sub with more power handling. So now I have to dump off the 15w6's, oh well.




Put one coat of filler on the box, still has a few more to go before its completely smooth, need some new belts for the sander. Should be doen the end of this week, havn't had any time to work on fun stuff because of work.



Any more questions let me know, I will keep everyone posted on my progress. Thanks for all the positive feedback.
