aha! you are doing one too, nice. i saw someone that did it a whole ago on a GD and i loved the idea but never did it

If you dont mind my asking, what did the enclosure set you back?

 

Thanks again for all the help on this!

 

Right now I've probably spent $50 on supplies, but that's been starting from scratch (mixing cups, stirrers, gloves, PAM, tape, all that little stuff included). I'll post a complete list and costs when I'm done.

 

that's a pretty nice price tag so far.

 

Third (and maybe final?) layer is drying. I took it out of the tire after the second layer, peeled off the aluminum foil, and it fits perfectly in the tire afterwards. So far so good! Now I just need my sub to get here so that I can cut the MDF

 

Any updates or pics

 

Planning on it tomorrow; it's supposed to be in the 50s and sunny! I'm going to try some underliner spray, then I just have to cut the MDF and resin the whole thing together.

Thinking about the Sony XM-1S amp because it's so teeny. And the healthy tax return should get the F90BT I want. Thoughts?

 

thats sounds great.
you could also look at the Alpine PDX amps
and the Eclipse avn 6620 Navi unit. both very
good products.

 

Alpine PDX looks great, but it's 2-3x times the cost of the Sony Maybe I'll be able to upgrade someday.

I'm pretty much sold on the f90bt, for two reasons. #1 It doesn't have the DVD-based navigation; it's all stored on a hard drive. #2 The avic411.com community is huge, and the ease of modding the Windows CE OS is really a selling point.

 

thats good then. can't wait to see it all installed.

 

Me neither!

I modified your design a little...using underspray on the sub box. Waiting for it to dry right now. Meanwhile, JDM emblems = installed!

 

Teaser photo!



Gonna go cut the MDF now.

 

ahh i can't wait to see it finished and installed

 

i'm back...

 

I decided to ditch my spare and am working on a box to fill the space.

 

whats that suppose to mean? I don't get it?






Thats very nice. I would have done the same but i need my spare.
So what are you going to do when you get a flat?

 

Call my insurance company, tow truck, cab, or rental car agency...depending on how urgently I need to get somewhere.

 

Thats cool. If it's okay with you it's okay with me.

I came from neighborhoods where you just don't leave
your car behind. especially a new one. It will disappear quick.

 

or just a friend
friends can usually help out with stuff like that.

 

I would get rid of my spare also.
I have AAA.
