False floor

Featured Replies

I see, well I will put the sub in without a box, if its crap I can always make it after.

Aye

Another trouble with this is all that wood is extra weight, slowing us down for drag racing with lambos at the lights!

:lol:

Take some pics of when you start it mate, I'd love to see how it comes along.

The wood isn't that heavy.

The wood you put in will weigh less than a passenger

Same problem here!

I'd also like to use my boot space so I'd want to protect the sub if I need to fill my boot too.

Would a sheet of perspecs set above this be ok, or would this again effect the sub?

Hmmmm to the drawing board!

If you wanna protect your sub buy a grill for it. You can't fit a sheet of perspex, the sub will just blow it out.

I don't mean directly over the top of it, say a few inches? would I still have the same issue? even with ports through the perspecs?

The air movement will still try and break the perspex tbh. The best way is to use a grill over the top of the sub which is bolted down.

Plus, how are you actually thinking of doing it, imagine building a perspex box over the sub, it would look quite weird.

The thing I can't be asked with, is making a box to fit around the sub?

I have seen loads of subs upsidedown that don't have a inclosure?

They do have an enclosure, it's exactly the same. You can't have a non enclosed sub.

he means something like this, but the sub in the place were yours is

They are still enclosed though. The other side will be sealed in a box exactly the same way a "normally" mounted sub would be.

Indy what material did you use to cover the false floor??

if your going to make a false floor for you sub, you need a box. if you dont use one, itl sound shite, and your aswell take it out. defating the purpose of makeing a false floor for you sub..

and 3/4" mdf is damn heavy, depenting on the size of your sub, and if the box will be ported or not, youl nee a good lot of timber in total, betreen the box and reenforcing it, aswell as the false floor..

look are you makeng it just in the boot or are you takeinf out the back seats?

if your takeing them out, dont bother with the false floor, bed out the hole back, like a van would be flat untill the front seats. then build the right sized box and leave it behind te seats, and youl have a hole heap of boot space!

I really can't be asked with this now LOL

I have made the excect same as image 3 and 4 and its carpeted.

Its raised 6 inches from its orginal position will this be enough for a sub?

If I can be asked to make an inclousure for the sub ill carry on but we wil see.

I'm not at work for a while not so I've got time on my hands, just no money to buy a sub.
