Building a custom enclosure
I was thinking about building a custom subwoofer enclosure. I haven't decided if I want to eliminate the back seat or put it in the trunk. I was wondering if anyone has pictures or websites where I can get ideas and/or instructions on how to build. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Well its a 95 Mustang GT to start. I haven't really decided exactly what I'm going for. I have been thinking more lately of putting it in the trunk. I am more into the look of the vehicle than the stereo to tell you the truth. I'd rather listen to the rumble of the exhaust than the stereo. I am doing it to draw more attentioin at the car shows if you know what I mean. I purchased a cheap set of Dual Subs rated at 1100 watts and a Dual Amp rated at I think 550 watts or so. They came as a package and for what I want I think they will do, plus I couldn't beat the price.

Thanks for your imput, but I am not trying to show them off at a competition. I am using them in Car Shows...Nobody really cares about how they sound at a car show...the car will be on display. Also, I am out of the stage of life where I must drag race cars all the time. If I want to do that...I have a motorcycle that will do the quarter in under 10 seconds; what else do you need?

I appreciate your response. I haven't looked at the site yet, but I'm sure it will have a lot on it. Anybody else have ideas on where to find pictures of actual cars?
