Does anyone know where I can have a sub box made to fit ski or might have a go myself. Daft question but how important (within reason) are the dimensions???

My mates company made mine for me (platinum in car). The box was built using the dimensions required for the sub. The face that the sub fixes to was angled so that it fits up against the back of the seat. if you calculate the volume the sub requires you can make the box to suit. if the box is to big you can use box wadding to remove some of the volume.

here is a link to a previous post of mine of my install.

Well, Ice cold audio (forum sponsor here) made mine. So it'd be mad to recommend anyone else to do it!!

Why not give them a call?

hello mate,

the dimensions are quite important. what sub are you planning on using? trick is to get a good seal between the front of box and the ski hatch. any major gaps will result in air escaping around the box and then it wont sound right at all. if you want me to draw you up a design then best thing is give us a call at the shop on 01189310888
