This one was for a friends CJ7. I wish I would have had more time for bondo and sanding but I was being rushed because of the car show the next day so this is what he got. Not to bad for my first attempt, especially for everything I learned on his money...;) Even was able to get some fairly clean looking wiring going for him..

The top was the only area that you could actually see so the sides and stuff weren't all the important hence why they aren't that great...

If your counting pennies and dimes then maybe you shouldn't be spending every penny and dime you have!!

That's great. My only worry would be the steal-ability of that setup. All it would take is a screwdriver if the top is down!!

The setup I had in my TJ made it so that the enclosure (100% MDF, 2 10's in sealed compartments, firing down) were built such that they had notches around the door latch apparatus. So there was no way to get the box out of there without opening the tailgate and folding the rear seat forward. Just a thought.

Yep, actually this is only a Show Jeep so I'm not all to worried about the stealing thing. Thanks for thinking about it though before it might happen....lol.

What brand is that sub, and do you like it?

The subs name brand is "Powerbass"

I'm actually really impressed at how great the sub is for the cost. I would highly recommend the sub to anyone who isn't all about the name brand subs.
