I am puting the finishing touches on the construction of my fiberglass sub enclosure and I have a few holes left. My main issue is with the corners of the enclosure that are oddly shapen and have both fiberglass and wood parts. I attached some pictues. What's the best way to seal these up?
Also, the fiberglass enclosure was built on top of the wooden base shown in the pictures. I am worried that the fiberglass is not secured to the base sufficiently. How can I make sure that it's not going anywhere? Thanks so much!

make up some body fill and resin and pure it in the box, let it fill the hole. I do that at the end to seal my seams, move the box around and get it in all the little holes and it will work great

I would lay more glass if your not sure about it. Even put a layer or two on the inside around the edges your concerned about.

i usually use 2pac filler to fill the holes, then sand it, and if nessary give it another coat of glass
