    I have some cool plans for my trunk...and want to see what others have done to theirs.

    I want mine to look and sound like a newer car, only without that cardboard/carpet thingy on the bottom. I will use a sturdier material, maybe 3/8" plywood.

    I also need to make it sturdy enough that my battery can be mounted to it and it will not move around.

    I want to completely separate my trunk from my interior and insulate it from the rest of the car.

    Anyone got pix:huh:

    I think it kinda makes the speakers act like rockets for propulsion. :rolleyes:

    Craig, how does that speaker sound behind the back seat? I guess that goes for Fan too?

    I don't have a back seat in (just a carpet covered plywood platform for my dog to stand on, she was starting to wear through the stock seat cover, so I put it in the attic. When she passes on, I will put the back seat back in.).

    But that speaker mount is EXACTLY what I have on the back of the dog perch. Been thinking of putting in a speaker or two like that, but figured I would lose the sound when the back seat is put back in.

    It's a subwoofer, it doesn't matter which way it points
