Been meaning to take more pictures throughout this but here’s what I have so far. I’ve been tired of under my back seat being taken up and not having much bass in my truck. I’ve been contemplating a center counsel box for a while now and just now building it. Specs are going to be about 1.25 cuft tunes to 39 hrz. More pictures to come.5e0bf1cb372f0e05b8c1a55564b82c8c.jpge8f38875e67c6d0e23fa9577695a3b3c.jpg73e33fbe031a2fd80bbab5d5caeddf94.jpg

This looks good! I'm getting ready to redo the stereo in my 2005! Definitely following!

Fiberglassed the inside of the kerf tonight got home late from work tonight and the past two nights so not much progress. I may change my tuning frequency to 36 hz. Might be re using a port tube from a previous box that I had in my Dakota

I’m currently debating on if I want to vinyl wrap it or just carpet the whole thing

Carpet might work good if it's the same as your truck. What size sub is going in?

Hehehe, you know what you COULD do, though? Take the big portion of your split rear seat out, and install another small portion there and build a sub box with cup holders in between them.

You'd still have the space under each rear seat, still have your full stock console, and still have your 3rd front seat without having a big throbbing sub so close to you. :3

Well, okay. I haven't any experience since before I was 5 with subwoofers while being inside the vehicle, so I currently reason to assume that it'd be bad to have the subwoofer right next to you like that.

Hey guys sorry I haven’t had any updates for a couple of weeks. It’s cold here and don’t feel like freezing out in the garage lol. Plus just got back from Mexico last week. As soon as I do something you guys will be the first to know.

Lol, I feel you. Though, probably not as much. I have to detail my truck and still do all the prep and primering for the bed liner. I was gonna do it this weekend, but my helpers had **** to do, and then the cold snap came, as well. :/

Fukken procrastination, amirite......?
