I've almost finished my install of two 10", one facing up and back into each corner. I extended the enclosure to take up the whole of the boot floor, including the spare tyre well, which meant I only had to raise the floor by about 3". Still plenty of boot space, and awesome sound.

i think i'm gonna do the floor trick when my 12" comes.. and possibly mount the amp in the floor as well.

There is a fair bit of room once the spare is removed.. i'll rig up a custom floor and it should work pretty well i think. Maybe build fibreglass enclosure for the wheel well like i saw on here i think somewhere?

I like the appeal of still having some space in there. If i don't like the results I can always mount it a box later on.

hopefully in the next 2 weeks i am going to mount my 12inch sub in the tyre well and the amp behind the false wall and custom fabricate all the panels in the boot to hide everything. Should look mad. I was also thinking of cutting the skyline symbel in the floor and have a contrasting perpex underneath. What do you guys think. Would you get the best results face up or face down?

Glassn the tyre well is good cause you can use this room to build up the litres required to make the optimal cabinet for your sub(usually specified in your sub owners manual)This method was covered in a hot 4's magazine and the end result was quite impresive, unshure of what issue i may look for you, prob is my hot 4's are all buried by hpi (i stopped buying them and started to read a real mag) cheers - Geordie

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
