 This is where it gets complicated....  This is where it gets complicated. This box takes advantage of every possible space with multiple panels and angles. Another approach would be to fiberglass this area and gain a little more air space, but simplicity is the approach today. |  We transfer our angle and...  We transfer our angle and measurements onto a sheet of wood and begin to make our battery covers. |  The top panel was cut to match...  The top panel was cut to match the curves of the rear trunk area and notched for the latch. Before the panel can be attached, it needs to be sealed. The center was marked off to ensure a proper fit as the sealing and nailing will be done outside of the vehicle. |
 Next we turn our attention...  Next we turn our attention back to the area behind the pump and begin a transition panel to "marry" the amp panel to the battery covers. notice how both the amp and transition panels were notched for the braided hose. |  Having the transition panel...  Having the transition panel in place makes it much easier to see where the battery cover comes into play. The front of the cover was angled to allow a better view of the pump motors and to keep a more open feel to the trunk. |  Now that the angles have been...  Now that the angles have been confirmed, side panels were attached and the inside of the box was sealed with adhesive silicon. |
 The edge was rounded over...  The edge was rounded over and the secondary final sealing of the box was done. |  Coming together nicely, the...  Coming together nicely, the only thing left is a bit of accent and the pump. The solenoids were relocated to the inside of the tire well where there was plenty of space and where they could remain out of sight. |  The final trunk is simple...  The final trunk is simple yet effective with just enough accents to make it show and still fully functional with removable battery toppers for easy access for charging and simple disassembly just in case the setup needs to be worked on. See you when this showpiece breaks the show floor again. |
 As mentioned earlier, the...  As mentioned earlier, the setup needed some help. To clean things up, a few unused brackets were cut off to free up a little more room. |  The final panel in the lower...  The final panel in the lower trunk area was measured out. notice that the measurement was taken off of a scrap-board. Three boards will be tacked to the final panel to create a semi-false floor that will allow for any oil from the hydros to flow down to the metal of the trunk floor and away from any of the upholstered panels that could be damaged. |  After wrapping and wiring...  After wrapping and wiring the box, the subwoofers were mounted. The same goes for the amplifier panel that sits behind the pump. notice the mounting steps created to keep the amp just the right distance from the face of the panel. |
 With those brackets out of...  With those brackets out of the way, the second amp rack was built for the sub amplifiers. It's a tight squeeze but we were able to fit both amplifiers. |  The panel was then test fit....  The panel was then test fit. notice that there's plenty of room for the upholstery material and for the mounting feet of the amplifiers. |  All dressed up and ready to...  All dressed up and ready to go, the sub amplifier panel goes in for the kill. |
