Punto (Mk2/2b) Boot build

I then took it all out again and cut the high density foam to suit the wood and covered it in leather.

Wired it all up and this is how it looks now..

Hey, don't think the last attachment works so I'm just uploading the finished photo again

Weird your calling it a boot build, when its the backseats as well....
Shoulda called it Rear car build

Make sure that amping up that the electrical systems (alternator and battery) are able to cope with it all

No point blowing things up because the calculations weren't done

Did the calculations when I first installed the sub and amp in its box, I've also got aftermarket guages for voltage and amperage so I can keep an eye on things, also its all fused up so there's no chance of it catching fire

Nice work,

Just now you can't put anything in your boot without risk of wrecking your sub ?
and any little bits of debris or grit will sit on top of the cone

Yeah, :/ it shouldn't be a problem, I'll keep it hoovered and I'm fabricating a mesh guard to keep it safe

Should put it in a perspex casing. This would protect the leather too which will get chewed up easily in the boot.

Well it's not too bad, I designed it so it's easy to remove, simply disconnect the amp, strap up the wiring with electric at tape and whip out the two sections. A 5 minute job. The two sections also sit comfortably stood up behind the seats so I can remove them at any time.
