Default 10" woofer box & cargo deck with trunk

Hey, this is my 100th post! hahhaa

Anyways, thought I'd share my little project. I have everything fitted and I'm hoping to finish by tomorrow. I apologize for the poor quality of these pictures, iphone camera sucks! I'll post new pics when completed.

This is a 10" woofer box. I didn't want to lose too much trunk space, so I decided to go with kickers CVT's, which are their shallow mount woofers.



I added a cargo deck and a trunk with hinges. I use pin clips to secure the trunk door.



Overall, I thought it turned out good. It's sturdy enough that I can sit on the trunk door. But I think I'm going to add a couple of bars under the door, just to give it more strenght.

EDITED - FINISH!


I'm really happy with how it turned out...what do you guys think?

I like the idea but I see that you used angle brackets to connect it. Do you have a hard top? wont the bracket be in the way of using teh hard top?

I just mounted the amp behind the box and ran the wires under carpet.

ummm, i don't know how much it weighs but it cant be too heavy since the box itself isnt that big.
