Bain Member 827 Member For: 21y 7m 3d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne Posted 06/04/06 04:28 AM Posted 06/04/06 04:28 AM looks good. What happens if you get a flat tyre, or your tyre blows (meaning you cant use that space filler crap in a can)?

There is also a panel that covers the woofer so you can put stuff in the boot.

Tee Member 29 Member For: 20y 7m 9d Posted 07/04/06 03:44 AM Posted 07/04/06 03:44 AM Did you need to cut a hole in the carpet to let the sub box fit inside the spare wheel?

You will have to turn the spare tyre up the other way and take out the piece of board so the extension where the subwoofer sits inside the tyre. FYI the sub box is about 48l, it has 2 50mm ports which are 78mm long it is tuned to 32Hz and the port have a coefficient less than 0.15 so they don’t whistle. The port size and length will be different for every woofer.
