yeah I used to go to this local shop everyday and watch them install and learn their products. after a while they started having me install and would take $$ off any component i bought. was a good gig till the owner caught on and put a stop to it. then he ended up hiring me for a while and i got stuck with all the hard installs + enclosures. manager quit and told me i should do my own thing so i did. Mobile, mobile elctronics installation lol. went to Mobile Dynamics in Tempe AZ and learned way more than I needed got a top rank certification. came home and started in again with the mobile deal till a buddy asked me to bring electronics into his tuner shop. quit him after a year and besides a few installs have not touched a system in 4 or 5 years. I used to build a lot of enclosures for people across the country.

 

right on man

I need to lay out some sort of fiber-box once I get my 2nd 10" for my single cab...

 

hahaha nice. why'd you need a 2 farad for? bit of over kill but cool. one brand i just never get into was sony. not sure why, just never was a big fan. I'd just do a full length enclosure seperated, and put a little amp rack in the middle kinda tucked - pretty common

 

well i have been workin on my enclosure for a week or so off and on. most of my tools are gone so I am working with limited things. I cut my huge box down to this

sealed and bondo and lots of sanding

then i spent some time contemplating color. Black? match the red? or....

and another for comarison lol. still need to run some clear coat over it and do some sanding

 

wow... the front speakers are 4" the blue wire is the antenna output. the which is also the remote amp signal wire. when the antenna turns on the amp does too. everything should have spliced. my friend a prob with the same head unit. get a new one... not sony... and try again. craigs list........
