2006 scion xb box

As the title says, I have a 2006 Scion xB that I'm wanting to build a system for. I plan on running these 2 - 12" Elemental design subs: http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=35, with this Elemental designs amp: http://www.edesignaudio.com/edv2/product_info.php?cPath=21&products_id=44

Here is how I'd like to build the box to look like:

My question is, I don't want the wires visible, coming into or out of the amp. How do I hide them or make them less noticable? The Scion I plan on luminating it blue. Sorry for the poor drawing, but you guys get the Idea of what I'm wanting to do. I want the amp to kind of hover over the box. Haven't figured out how to do that either, but I got the MDF base, and am about to start on the structure skeleton this weekend.

I would go with tubing through the box as well. I am assumig that you are mounting the amp on a 3/4" pedastal as well? If so, to hide the wiring and cleaning it up, look into putting split loom and using loop hold downs to the underside of the amp mounting board to guide the wire and clean up the food. Most looms are black and that will help hide the wires pretty well. If your pedestal uses a hollow tube or a box like form for the mount, consider drilling a hole in the side of it and run the wires down through that to hide the wiring.

For me, I would have made a channel in the mounting board and ran the wires through that. I would use a box like structure or tubing structure of some sort that would support the amp base and where it meets at the channel drill through the base and drop the wiring down the hole and into the support. That would clean up the wiring and have almost none of it showing.

I would stick to the 3/4" This will make it heavier, but it will also make it extra strong. This is the foundation for all of your display here. You can never be too strong. Save the 1/2 for another project. ^-^

Take a look at this tutorial I posted a while ago. Especially if you have little to no experience with FG.

Pay special attention to the sections on where the fleece and glass meet. You'll be doing some router work there, but it will make a VERY strong connection between the wood and glass.

After you finish glassing and getting everything done (except paint) I recommend spreading a skim coat of wood glue on the exposed wood inside of the assembly. As the glue dries it'll shrink slightly and seal the wood better.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask. The only dumb questions are the ones you don't ask.

I finally got a chance to start back on my box project, had some things come up. But I now have the base done, sides glassed to base and am about to start the structure. Thanks for all the help. I'll post pictures when I actually get something started, that is worth a picture
