making your own boot build

[linz]

rite well im a girl on a mission and lets sayim shy to try new things

anyway getting a custom boot build can cost well sh!t loads and to be honest i jus dont have tht kinda money to throw away or even have

anyway i was wonderin which of you have built your own and what did you use?? im thinking round so using mdf ect aint gonna help me much lol

[Chris 'N' Jen]

is this the sort of idea?



depends on how much time you want to put into it. and what you want out of it. Gotta get a hinged false floor in there so you can still access your spare wheel.

Sticky and messy - and that's just the fibre glass and resin

Have you done a boot build before?

[linz]

[Guy]

Chris 'N' Jen - like the boot install!

Where did you get the carpet from? Is it actual golf boot carpet or just new carpet from carpet store?

More questions

Did you custom build that from mdf?

I was thinking of putting a sub on one side and an amp on the other, 6x9 in the parcel shelf. Just need time and money ...

i know for a fact that the bloke at stealthbox has a 10" sub box that he made in error as he was supposed to make me a 12" box - might be worth asking if he wants to offload it cheep?

or if you want to try it yourself have a look at this...

that link is awesome, cheers guy. If i can make some sense of it and see if can get the "ingredients" and i will have a go. My m8 will probably give me a hand. If it goes well, he will probs do it to his Leon.

The 10" box sounds interesting. Is it completed finished with carpet? - and also - Is it just a box or a custom made box to fit perfectly in the boot, like the one in the link?

Cheers m8
