Kents 08 Lexus ES350 Build
This was my old box that I had in my 92 Toyota pickup. We decided to use it temporary until we can build a new enclosure. If I remember right I tuned it to 29 hrtz or so. I Don't know if it is because the Lexus has superior insulation compared to my pickup or if it is because we used the SA-8 V2's instead of the SA-8 v1's, or a combination of both but the lows don't hit as hard as they did in my yota.

The box is heavy enough and the seats are back far enough tht it gets trapped back there. I used a jigsaw because I have a cheap harbor freight tools table saw tht can't cut a straight line even If it wanted to. As for the head unit it's a kenwood exceleron. It's like a 2000 model and was top of the line back in 2000.

Man in that last picture the edge of the hole looks pretty thin. I'd be scared it would blow apart!

The box is just sitting on top of the rear seats and it's not bolted down. It's heavy enough that it won't move. I'm going to do another video today with the GF and see if I can move some hair.

Well i finally got a video. Not as great as I was expecting. I guess a system always looks and feels better in person as the camera didn't pick up my seat shaking. Either that or I just need to go bigger ha. Anyways it's my first video so ignore the stuttering. Towards the end of it i do address the problem I have been having lately. Whenever i turn the ignition off my subs pop real bad. I've only done it once so i don't think I've done any damage to them but to avoid this i have to turn my radio off, which then turns the remote off to my amps. Only then can i turn the ignition off and avoid the POP. Any ideas? Anyways enough yappin' my mouth off lets move on to the video.... VIDEO:

I was defiantly shocked with the 8's. They sound like two 12's. I tuned down low for SQ but if i turn it up i can shake my seats and rear pick up bed. It's quite impressive to say the least. I think I might post up a video today as I have nothing to do.

Well right now it's just bare. I still have to fill all the holes up with wood putty and then re-sand. Probably be painting it black. Thanks everyone for the comments. I'll be posting up more pictures and a video later.
