Look great, but more important, how do they sound?

They sound great. They have a very clean and crisp sound. I prefer the sound of sealed enclosures to ported, but just takes more wattage to the speakers. But with two subs it is not as important an issue. Very happy with what I've done.

That's beautiful. Those amps fit in there like a glove. Are you going to put grilles over the subs to protect them?

They look great! Where did you get them from I wanted to upgrade the sound in mine too but I didn't want to lose that space in the rear!

Got lucky with the amps fitting in, and I am going to keep them without grilles because if I am going to be carrying anything in the rear I can lift up the rear gate and slide them out. Built in pos/neg hook ups on bottom below deck for ease of taking out.

Thanks, I didn't get them from anywhere actually, I built them myself out of 3/4 inch mdf and had an upholstry shop cover them for me in the same material as the seats.

Wow...I'm not that handy in the fabricating area. LOL. I'll have to hit the local stereo shops and look for something similar...unless you're up to making some for me. (hint, hint) I'll pay of course.

Granted it was sort of a piece by piece experiment, I don't know if I would have the 60 hours again to build another set. Try the local stereo places, I told some in my area what I was looking for and they said they didn't want to touch trying what I wound up with. They also wanted to use fiberglass which I was not too crazy about, maybe someone will be willing!
