What do you guys think of the box I am working on to replace my jump seat? I will paint the contoured sides and port to match my factory paint, and carpet the flat sides to match interior carpet. I will post another picture when painted and then in place. It is tuned to 32 htz for my Jl audio 12w7

Looks awesome. Is it fiberglass? Off topic but what size are your wheels and tires?

I just posted in the other thread you posted a pick in, just going to say that is going to be so intense sitting right beside you.

I had a ten inch Memphis under the back seat, but it was not what I was used to. The mounting depth of the 12w7 is 9.5"so it would not fit, even with a 2"seat lift, I tried that before the 10"Memphis went in.

I have one in that location now. Of course it is firing down. I have turned out over, and it was not bad at all really.

Great craftsmanship there!
What's the internal volume of the enclosure?
The 12w7 is simply a timeless subwoofer that can do it all, and very well too

The internal volume is 2.25 not counting the displacement of the woofer and the port. Jl calls for 1.75, however I have never ran into a problem with a little extra. Here is the box ready for paint. Should get paint today. 2ad5e660b0592669a66b8beacff45268.jpg

Yes fiberglass and bondo. The tires are 35-12.5-17s with 1.5 inch leveling kit. This shows the stance. 0036536c23f1f831a407d2ecf6d8d5fe.jpg

Thank you guys so much, I couldn't have imagined it turning out so well, when I started this project.
