Where are you located? Anywhere near west covina? If so, I could hook you up with a shop that'll do a fiberglass case for you real cheap. They gave me a motorized monitor, dvd player, tv tuner, speakers, and amp for under 1k installed. Most places will charge you 5-600 just for the box, pm me for huge discount.

I went to Audio Options in Torrance. Ask for Steve. Great work and great pricing.

dont be scared of fiberglass! just do some research (its not rocket science) and dive right in. trial and error...dont expect it to be perfect the 1st time through just like learning anything.
here is a quick write up i did on a simple fiberglass project i did in my sister's civic.

ask me some questions if you need help.

I've heard that box. It sounds good for how small it is, easily fills the cabin with a good bass sound.

That box is nice. Jon makes very high quality boxes and the speakers he uses are one of the best in SQ and SQ+. Image dynamics is very respectable.
