G'Damn, that is pimp...How much would that amp run me??? As always nice work...Shyne

 

im scratching my head. how is it floating like that?

 

Use the force, Luke.

 

ernie is sitting on top of the car holding the amp up with fishing line! (but shhh...don't tell them i told you!)

 

How do you come up with these ideas Ron....that is the coolest thing I ever seen!!

 

I know how it's floating. . . .My question is what kind of subs run off braided 4 gauge speaker wire. . . .

 

The braided 4 guage is just for looks

 

as always! nice job!

 

WOW!

BTW, are those subs facing down?
If it is, how is the sound?
Please enlighten me.

 

Street, I must say everytime I see a new car you have worked on I am thoroughly impressed. In a market where originality counts as much as sound you never seem to run out of new ideas, I hope to get enough money to have you work on a system for me someday. . . .

Black, If you look closely the bax is actually rasied up off the floor of the trunk by what looks to be an inch to an inch and a half. By the looks of it, I am guessing that is a sealed box and I don't know what kind of subs those are, but I am betting that the airspace underneath that box is designed to vent into the cabin.

Am I right Street?

 

Street, i had a similar question about the subs facing down, how can you do that? How much room is necesary under neath? Is that a sealed box? Can you do a little expalnation on how that set up of the subs facing down workks...

 

 

Yes, the box is sealed and is actually about 1.5 off the floor, but more towards the front it gets deeper due to the wheel well. The box is designed around the "stealth box". I did an install of a Stealth box in a 2001 Dodge Ram where the sub enclosure goes under the back seat with the subs about 2" off the floor and it sounds incredible.

The subs actually fire into the spare tire compartment...there is a meshed window, which I will take pics of that allows the air to flow....next step it to actualyl tune the box. We fired it up and it sounds great. Of course, the box is built with certian specs, taking into consideration the inside is angled with mirror and fires to the floor.

 

Looks really good Ron! I love the setup....very very impressive!

 

That looks amazing. Each one gets better and better. Hey Ron what kind of systems can you set up for those of us that want to keep a lot of trunk space and our spare tire?

 

its incredible...how can a trunk look that beautiful!!!

 

.....with time, and A LOT of patience

 

And with a nice sized wallet I would suppose. Especially since I remember shelling out 300 bucks just for the 18"x20" sheet of 1' thick plexiglass for my box....(yes i know it was overkill)

 

what kind of lights are used in this trunk?
what color are they also?
where can i get them?

 

WE used neon wire, neon tubing, led backlighting We carry all this.

 

Street:
I don't mean to give you advice on a project that you obviously already have planned out But I think having a chipped edge to that plexi would look very very good...that's what I'm going to do on my setup...

Also...go check out my post in Audio and Electronics about the system I'm about to do...I want your (and anyone else's I can get) ideas and advice...

Yeah, I hear you on the edges of the plexi....it would make the neon stand out a lot more, but, we wanted everything to look FINISHED.....although I much prefer the semi cleared look for neon reasons, I think it looks like the installer just got lazy and didn't polish them, therefore making it look incomplete.

Lemme go take a look at your project

Yeah I agree with you...you have to do the chip right or else it looks terrible...chipping off at the wrong angle...too even...or too much and it's over. As for my project you've probably found the thread but it's here:
