plus the music is done right, not "clipped" it messes up your subs if the music is clipped

oh well check out the prigress, some integra owners will hate for doing this to the car lol

I wanna thank Robert for coming up and helping out with the build, he did alot of work and sad to say we had one casualty his router died in the line of duty :(

Day started off pretty good a little cloudy had to borrow a truck to get the mdf, ended up buying a bunch of small stuff that adds up quick but what ever it takes to get it done!


Running the power and ground wire


Fuses under the hood, on the drivers side



Grounds on the pass side



Then running them all under the center of the wall so it takes less wire


The front half of the wall, its bolted down to the cross brace under it. Gas tank was right under so we had alittle bit of a hard time figuring out where to bolt it down to



then the rear half


top of it was suppose to be squared off but the hatch wouldnt close <_<
Robert hacked the edge off and it closes now, its really close the glass sits on the boxes edge
We had planned to fiber glass it but i figured this would be easier, then add fiber glass on the inside


added some support on the inside, there will also be a 2x4 going front to back once the baffle is in


still some room up there, also along the sides. some trim pieces will go into effect soon

heres the baffle, its doubled up and then flush mount piece.
CAN I HAZ SOME PORT?!
just sitting over each other in the last pic not centered or any thing




putting the batteries in the spare tire part, made alittle battery rack outta mdf and bolted it down



cut the notch for some wire to go thru


here is the battery in its place

Real Good!
for the fuses....im gonna make my own unless i get a deal imma run this for now
2 on each side, running 3 runs of + but might add another soon so



in the car, bolted down. the reason the sides are higher is beacause there will be a false floor about 6in higher than what it is now so it will hide the batteries and all u will see is the amp on top

wiring the batteries
2 runs of + to the left battery
1 run + to the right battery
1 run of - from the front to the back, ONE FOR EACH batt
1 - run FROM EACH neg on the batteries to the chasis
+ to + and then - to -

fusing, only one on the other side


neg front to back



ground from battery to car




everything but the + ran, wires are there ready to bolt up



with half the wall and the batteries car dropped an inch, hoping for TWO all set and done

yeah its a :ninja: move
i hate seeing them on the side or interior panels they look outta place
dimmer switch will still be hooked up behind the dash

did some work today

got some stuff to make it alittle easier to sand
had this for while, makes sanding a whole lot easier



stared off by sanding the inside part we left it long so it would be perfectly even after sanding

and after


top edge



added some pieces to the outside for the trim panels for later




making the sides for the port, trying to make it the same width all the way sucked but got it done


here it is with the baffle, not perfect but im happy with it. flush mount piece is still not on






outside in pics



port still need another 4-5inches added to the back witch should be pretty easy, i get that done next and then im going fiber glass some of the corners.
and nothing is sanded for good, cauk is drying then ill add some bondo

thats what the "dimmer switch" is for, so he can crank it down unless hes at a competition.
