Bronze Member Username: Slo2sixtyPost Number: 12 Registered: Mar-10 | Im gonna be adding onto this thread as i go along. First of all i will be ordering the FI ssd12 and be building a sealed 1.2 cube box. I have recently bought some Fatmat Rattletrap off ebay and installed it in my trunk over the past two days. Heres some pics of the trunk. It might not be the best looking thing ever but ur never gonna see it. Anyways here they are. Lmk what ya think. I'll be doing the doors later also. http://s44.photobucket.com/albums/f33/Slo2sixty/Subaru/?albumview=slideshow Turns out i dont know how to upload images on this site hahaha |

Bronze Member Username: Slo2sixtyPost Number: 13 Registered: Mar-10 | Thanks it really helped out alot. If you were in the back seat of my car and i was driving you would hardly be able to hear me talk. Now its bearable to be in the back seat of my car on the highway. cant wait to get the doors done. |

Silver Member Username: Wackzirth88K-town, Il U.S. Post Number: 310 Registered: May-09 | U can get away with just glueing and clamping the box sinces it's pretty small. Make sure u give the glue time to set up if ur only going to glue and clamp. If u have to use screws be sure to predrill, countersinking the screws always makes a nice finish too. |
