Mac Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 Well I'd suggest looking at the design of my install, and all the prototyping pics, If u want it to fit in well with the seats then get some cardboard, tape and a bit of paper and make a prototype to fit the boot then make the real thing from from wood using the dimentions from the prototype then u know it will fit My Instal pics: http://www.btinternet.com/~Sarah.McIntyre3/Install/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share Posted March 4, 2004 yeah, but i want to work out the dimensions of the box because dont they have to have a 3ft cubic space inside??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcus Posted March 4, 2004 Author Share Posted March 4, 2004 also, what power rating cable would i need, i plan on having 2 x amps, a sub, and a power cap so would 1200 watts cable do or would i be better off with 1600??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex-Finesse Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 yeah, but i want to work out the dimensions of the box because dont they have to have a 3ft cubic space inside??? Look in the manual u go twith the box. It'll tell you what size the inside must be. If you want someone else to calculate the dimesons, PM me the details inside the handbook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blimey Posted March 4, 2004 Share Posted March 4, 2004 That same bit of plastic broke off on mine , tried glueing it back on but it wont stay and when the boot closes the shelf tens to fall inwards a bit :/ http://www.btinternet.com/~Sarah.McIntyre3...pe/PC220015.JPG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sextons Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 may i ask why your even bothering makeing one yourself, by the time you add up a sheet of mdf glue screws the chances of messing up the angles are high getting the volume wrong when it cost about 50bucks to buy one of the shelf job done computer designed and machine built.

Mac Posted March 17, 2004 Share Posted March 17, 2004 To be honest, I just guessed But then i decided to work it out and they are around 1.56 cuftBasicly u divide it up in the different sections work out the volume of each then add them all 2geather Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marcus Posted March 17, 2004 Author Share Posted March 17, 2004 ok dont want to start arguing but if that is the case then its a bargain and i would have had one off you but the cheapest i found them was 40 and everybody else wanted 80+ and these are non-customised boxes. customised ones, i was looking at 120+ Marcus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
