tC2: Custom Fiberglass Sub Boxes
#1
Custom Fiberglass Sub Boxes
I have been trying and trying, unsuccessfully, to find an affordable solution to sub boxes for my tC2. The only options I could find were the JL stealth box and the OEM, both of which were incredibly overpriced and only offered a box for the passenger's side. I finally made my own after refusing to pay $350 per box.
I've always made my own boxes using MDF, and have worked with fiberglass before in a job dealing with boat manufacturing. Mine turned out great. They fit perfectly and sound better than my MDF boxes. The ones I have are for 10" Kickers.
I want to meet any demand for these boxes at a more reasonable price than car audio stores (I was quoted over $400 for one box at 2 different locations in my state). I can make them any shape or size, any finish, anything desired. I invested in the tools to make my own so I may as well take advantage of my situation and offer them for sale to other people on here.
The price of these will vary depending on lots of factors such as size, mounting (recessed or normal), finish (upholstery or paint), number ordered, etc.
These boxes open up a lot of trunk space, leave your cargo light completely accessible and even leave room for a trunk brace.
Here are some pics of the ones I made for my tc2 (Please excuse the debris in my trunk! I took the last two pictures right before finishing my first box so there is a lot of fiberglass, dirt and debris that should not be there!).

I've been looking/waiting for years for something like this. Problem is, same as yours, I kept getting $350 or so per box. How much were you thinking for a pair?
I have 2 10inch kickers in my first gen tc right now that's taking up way too much space. My trunk is basically useless.

man i wish someone was still making these for the first gen tc. everytime i found someone on here that was making them it was too late and they no longer had the tc or something. always wanted to get a pair like this and paint to match the custom interior work i have done!!!! i agree with the both of you and not going to pay $350 and thats all you can find nowadays. good work on these they look awesome!
