    Lightbulb Gas VN Boot Ideas

    hey everyone, here are some pics of my old boot setup, its neater now but i'm lookin into getting subs. Now that amp board is covering my gas tank, So i cant put subs there......

    I had an idea on the right side to use 2x 10" in diameter 11" deap PVC tubes and with correct mdf braces and some fibreglassing to do 2 sub enclosures on the right side. And entirely smooth/bog/spray it. But i dont' know how it'd look.

    Anyone else willing to give ideas.

    Cheers
    MaT

    dont know... might look dodgy. Look cool now the only prob is all the wires everywhere. what i did was drill holes in the board for the wires to run through. Then you dont see them and they arnt pissing you off. Why cant you make some custom boxes to go into the corners there. Would look AWSOME then. might take some effort but hey i think it would be worth it in the end

    Dont quote me on this, but im pretty sure its illegal to cover the gas tank in the back like that. For safety reasons.

    Look in the pic, 2 silver things on each side of the board.. Pressure clips, pull them in and the amp board drops down to give full access to gas tank, I needed them the other week when my LPG system turned into a flame thrower.

    I'm wanting to fibreglass something on the right side, Just don't know if i'm exactly confident enought with glassing something.......
