LE BOOT -

looks like its getting there. i might have some compotition next year
in my experiance you might wanna try the system without the 6x9`s
i used to have a set when i was at about 142db but now that ive disconnected them im down to about 137-138db which is still awsomly loud but a lot lot clearer
what headunit are you using
i used to use a panasonic now i use alpine and the difference is night and day!
sony speakers are shunned by many but all my speakers are, for the moment, sony e plob and so are the subs.
id show you a pic but imagestation is naff

your going to have plenty of competition next year, my car should be ready within 2 months or so!

i'll give ya a run for your money too!

Lookin good Neil.

I should be up there to for a sound off, I had my system measured and got 134Db. Hopefully by next year i can get it up a notch or 2.

nice mate, what gear you got in there? Looks like some kind of RE sub

I should have around 135-138db when using my day to day box, but hopefully up to 140db in my SPL box

The 6*9's and the Front Speakers are on a filter pass set up on the headunit - Just giving Vocals, with the 6*9s i think there might not be enough vocals and way tooo much bass - ill give it a shot when i put in the stealth shelf i got from Wulber this weekend. That way i can have that recovered the same as the boot etc,

The Cd Player i run the now is the CDX-M770, its only the 2nd cd player ive owned, so i cant compare to much !!! What u lot think of it ?

ICEYPOLO - Thats a really nice colour

Iv never had it measured - but i think it might be done when i meet Wulber next month

As for the shopppin Bstard Child - thats y mum and dad own a Vauxhall Zafria

Hopefully have it all finished and some more leds in, put a half fake floor and mayeb in the future another amp form the components - who knows - who knows.

Cheers Neil.

Why didnt you cover the 6x9's ?

*scratches head*

Calâ„¢

What ya mean ?

Ive had the 6*9s for a bit in that shelf. Was waiting till i started the install afore putting the other shelf in - now get them all covered in the same material ?

That what u meant ?

Its only the start of this so see what happens

looking sweet only if i didnt need the boot space!!! Personally no offence but what about your boot space????

The Way I Bulit this up, is so simple - in the mk5 boot at where the seat comes back and touches the boot floor theres like 2 metal brakets , at eachside, well the 2 side pannels are made so tight that the press on the inside of these , to take it out its a simple case of , seat forward and lift the pannel up, if they need to come out , as for the subs , 4 screws and there out , if i needed the space or the spare out

As for that , i dont need the boot space - just used it for maps and stuff lol which is like 1% of it ,

as for ICEY POLO , how do u get ur spare out ?

When i was building mines i decided to build a hatch on the floor above the spare wheel, This is what the sub box sits on, so all i have to do is put the seat forward and the box lifts up along with the seat and then lift the hatch.
Although i'll never have to do this, cos i soon changed my mind and decided to get rid of the spare and carry some cans of tyre weld instead. Maybee next the brightest idea, But then Im not the brightest person. lol

lol i was gonna say, all that work and u didnt cover them up ? (stealth)

Top work mate :¬P lookin crispy

Calâ„¢

LOL , yeah im skint LOL so im waiting on getting paid so i can carpet it all any donations ?
