Nice work but for some reason the sub looks hella small.

Yea i thought so too. It is only a ten but it looks really small. Everyone told me to get two 10s but im really glad i didnt. I think this is too much bass for me as it is. Luckily my headunit has a way to adjust it

Looks great! I love doing this stuff myself... you're right, the satisfaction you get after spending so much time is so much more than paying someone to do it.

I did a similar install in my wife's accord, and I understand what you mean about the contours being different on each side. Can be a pain in the ass.

Here's what it looks like... it used to have another amp, crossover, and epicenter in the install, hence all the empty space. You'll find those components in my car now! Nothing like scavaging!

Thanks That accord looks really good especially how you mounted the subs. Glad im not the only one with a weird trunk. Your sides are completely different

Oh forgot to post this earlier, thanks to crazy acura for the idea

looks good man. Now is that a big box or is it a "wall" ? How does it sound?? lots of bass??? i figure its not to much bass since its a 10. I love the way 10s sound . they have that thump to them.

haha its no problem man. I dont even have that setup anymore...I had the one 12" with the wall and amp mounted like this pic, but now i have two 12" in a box. with no wall. The wall made all the difference in looks, everyone loved it. I need to make one for my 2 12" it looks soo shitty without one!!!

looks good. Looks exactly like my trunk except I have a fuse block and a changer integrated into the wall. But I had a friend do - actually yours looks a lot better....
