My Sub Box Build

[Fgjoh]

So i started 3 days ago with this and just finished it. I thought i might put this up here as i haven't seen any corner boxes for the c34

Step 1

Step 2

And finished

[bentwagon]

that's exactly where i wanna put mine, cause of requirements with space etc. i can't just buy a normal box, and slim box just sitting there would look f***in stupid, details on how it was done, costs etc. or just how much to make me one. im sure u would almost be able to start a production line for all us C34 owners, i would think there'd be a bit of interest. Looks trick, very professional

I can put up a few pics and details of the process. it's not too expensive material wise just time consuming

I dunno if there was enough interest maybe i could make a few

[bentwagon]

I would put my hand up for that.

Here is two more pics of the boxes

I'll put up a how to guide later in the week if i get the time

nice looks like it was meant to be there

I'd happily shell out a few bucks for one.

Same, after fitting the rear strut brace my sub doesnt fit where i used to have it, and doesnt really work anywhere else without taking up heaps of room. This looks like a perfect solution

[GoldZilla]

Yeah, I'd be keen on cost of having one made or instructions too - the main reason (apart from laziness) that I haven't had a sub installed yet is because I can't figure out a solution that will work and have very minimal impact on the boot space available.

Oh, are the tie-down points covered by the box? I use these fairly often.

Good work!

Sadly the tie downs are covered but for me that wasn't too much of a big deal

By the looks of the interest so far i might make a mold and do a GB on these

I'll try and work out a price over the next few days and go from there

once i get some time to make another box i'll make a how to guide

also as your a mod I've sent you a pm with a few questions re forum rules on GB's

[capturedcreation]

what size sub are you running?

Ditto on the instructions...... gives me something to do while I'm on the mend thats not too stressful on the body.

Just a thought re: the tie downs, I'm guessing the box could be reinforced & a strap inserted during the manufacturing process. (Guessing its fibreglass so maybe between layering the glass, the strap could be similar to ratchet strap material)

If you did a group buy, would be very keen

[Scriblez]

+1 for Group by, this is exactly what i was going for in mine. Silly question, but where are you running your amp?

The sub is a dls mw12 it's 15cm deep so most subs would fit this box

and i"ll post a pic of where the amp is later today

What would be the max Litre capacity of these box's?

I haven't calculated mine yet but it should be over a cubic ft

so ideal for most sealed subs
