nice build. I would have double baffled the speaker mount for a flush mounting myself, but nice work otherwise.

I thought you might be limited given the depth of the box. Great skills though, very neat and sturdy looking build.

Here are the 'installed' pictures (its just sitting there at the moment) A really tight fit between the box and the middle seat belt (Bad measuring on my part) I think it worked out for the better though. it stopped the rear deck from rattling.

Sounds amazing. it was exactly what I was looking for. A little louder (its wayyy louder VS the sealed box it was in) and deeper. No port noise so far, so there is probably none. I'm very happy with how this turned out. Money well spent for sure.

Sorry about the picture quality.

Looks sweet & weird as hell, why didn't you do an L-shaped port? With 3 corners vs. 1, you're losing air flow.

with the L shape port 3/4 of the port would have been blocked so we centered the port for better airflow into the cabin of the vehicle

What I wanted was to have this box firing into the cabin. Firing into the trunk isn't an option for me, so its obvious from the install pictures that a regular L port would not work.
