So heres some more progress.

I have the covers and grill for the sub finished, just waiting for the **** in laws to clear my shop out (they parked their belongings in there during a move) so I can do the trim panels and get it carpeted


the grill is a shelf that I cut in half and mounted a supporting piece of aluminum down the middle. Its ugly, but itll be covered soon


and the view from the front. My spare tire fits on top of this and is just below the seat line. Its bizarre being able to see out the back glass again.

heres everything uncovered, I have the flase floor cut into two sections, and hinged, so it slides up and rests on the sides of the amp rack for easy equipment access.




and heres my remote gain and voltage meter reinsalled in the glove box area.

The sub looks like a 10" or 12" in the trunk of your wagon

about 2 "
I can rest most of my weight on the grill before it touches the surround.

Yeah, the cargo area makes the sub a little small doesnt it? lol
