Right, finally got round to uploading the pics of my boot install.


First I started with a frame made of scant. Scant is big and rather heavy, but it did the job so I went with it.

I had to modify the MDF which lifts up to fit past my boot so I could get access to wiring.

Initially, I wanted to have the sub mounted on the MDF top, but after I tried this, as the sub wasn't enclosed, the sub became basically useless, so under the advice of Aceritz and Johnny Alan and a few others, I decided to put the sub back in the box and build my install around it.

that space is where I'll be putting the cruisewirral.com with sound activated neons that shine through the logo.

I'm after a linear actuator or something of the sort to lift this part up for show. smile

The fogs are a nice touch Joe, just don't be one of the typical Beemer drivers who leave them on when it's clear!

Cheers guys.

Haha I'll try not to Jimbo, hard to resist though tease

I'm thinking of getting a new backbox and decatting it.

Then maybe a spoiler smile

I'll see what comes up though and I'll keep looking in the scrappies to see what I can find. Could of picked up some nice white dials, but he wanted £25 thumbsdown
