Back seat coming out.., need advice.. Options

[cnelson]

Alright well i'm going to take out my back seat in my coupe.. i know some people are probably against it but.. since i'm only 17 i'm only allowed to have one other person in the car, and the coupe back seats are small enough already to barely even fit people in it.

My idea was to get two subs build a custom box in where the back seat was.. but i don't know anything about building a box that would sound good?

Using MDF, either 1/2" or 3/4", you will also need some other tools. Drill, pneumatic stapler or finish nailer, jigsaw, vinyl sealer, M3 Spray adhesive, wood glue and some kind of carpeting material. DESIGN a box first, not just for the size of the subs but decide whether you'd like a ported box, a vented box or simply just a sealed box. You can pick up the Subs and probably the porting/venting materials at www.partsexpress.net , they have everything do address your home or car audio needs. This will be a walkthrough for a simple sealed box, although it doesnt take much imagination to elaborate on the port/vented boxes. Once you decide on a design, cut out the the right dimensions from the MDF and apply wood glue on any edges that are to be PNUEMATICALLY stapled together, your fathers standard staple gun wont work, just before you plan to staple them together. Now you will need a 3 holes, one for the +- terminal (i guess thats what its called, someone educate me please =) ) and 2 for the subs. Simply drill a hole in the middle of each planned sub hole(Draw on the MDF w/ a pencil) and use the jigsaw to completely cut out the holes. Do the same for the +-terminal. Once you have the holes cut out, take some latex sealer and seal all the joints inside the box, although its not completely necessary you will notice a difference. after that its just connecting wires from the +- terminal and runnin them to where you wouldocnnect your subs in. And finally before you put in the subs, bust out the 3M Spray adhesive and spray it down, its easier todo 1side at a time, and apply carpeting using a credit card to get the bubbles out and you should be good to go.Good Luck,and mozilla crashed on me halfway through the second time I was writing this up lol, no luck with internet browsers i guess
