Rep Power: 0 materials needed for this...
I would like to use the spare tire well in my trunk to house 1 12" JL W7....now what materials would i need to correctly do this? I was thinking about taking out the current material in my trunk and making a sort of mold to that and building a box right into it.
Another thing to consider is id like to have this sub down firing...or azz end up as some people call it. I also might like to (if im making a whole new mold) have a hidden place to put my 2 amps that will still give them enough room to breath.
The amps are a Xtant 4 channel and Xtant 1000w mono.
As for insurance needs these have to be mounted in some way to the car....but id also like the ability to take it out if the time came (and possibly keep my spare tire.
I know this is a lot but some of you have seen a lot more custom installs then i have...just looking for some ideas, mostly on materials i should use.

Rep Power: 0 One word for Moulding....use FIBERGLASS.....do some searching online and you will find lots of information on how it's done.....it's not too hard to do but it takes lots of practice to get it looking good

Rep Power: 0 Hmmm....okay Mounting W7's inverted is a tricky bish...you have to mount the sub to the baffle..then attach the baffle to the rest of the box.. Or make a mounting ring that you screw into the box so that you can remove the ring and take the whole sub out...you might want to consider that
