Thanks matey. It's just a 45 degree s/steel bend I got from my local exhaust shop, which I polished, and a couple of silicone joiners from Supercheap.

Looking good mate, How did you do the install for the boot boxes? Do you get the right sound from your subs with the size of boxes?


They're MDF reinforced fibre glass with an internal volume of 1.2cu ft with the driver installed, which is pretty much bang on for the P2's. The left box hinges inward to access the jack and the amp rack hinges up to access the spare. Although I do need to put a couple of gas struts on there because it's fkn heavy.

Would you be able to post the measurements for the false floor? I made my own cut out and stuff to do it myself but I'm just interested in comparing my measurements to yours (Maybe a little diagram of how you did the hinges too if you wouldn't mind :D)

It's not that simple bud. The floor is contoured around the sub enclosures so I don't have to remove them to get the spare out. It's in two sections. One, from just behind the shocker towers is attached to the floor, and the second section from the shocker towers to the rear of the boot is what hinges up. It uses a full length brass piano hinge and is fkn heavy to lift up.
