Default Help with sub box???? PLEASE!

OK so I kind of want to clean up my sub box a bit. Does any one know how I could fiberglass (or something clean) two 12in subs to the rear deck. Right now the box I have is doing ok but I can see the bolts holding it up are coming lose and the inside of the box won't stay clean. Thanks!

Default Adding subs that size to the rear deck is a lot more difficult than it looks...

you'll need to fabricate something that would be able to hold the enclosure up there. the deck alone will not. do you have pics of your existing enclosure?

Default not sure how much this would help,

but the more bolts you can get up there to hold the enclosure, the better they'll stay. also, consider making like a thin sheetmetal plate to put above the rear shelf and then put the bolts through that so that the force of the weight of the enclosure is distributed across that whole plate, as opposed to just the heads of the bolts.

Default That was probably the most useless comment ever...

I can take criticism and I'm fine with it but could you maybe next time tell me why and maybe some ways to improve it?

Default ha alright well

the wires just all over the place, the amp just sitting there, maybe if you did a "beauty cover" of some sort around the edges of the plexi glass in black it would look better.

im sure it looks better in person

im just beating it up online... im ... im sorry. im ebarrassed

Default Oh I thought you meant the box?

Ya I have no idea what to do with the amp. I ran out of money and I was going to add 2-3 more amps. I think i'll just take it all out and save up for a shop to do it or something.
