May 21, 201213 yr Author One step closer. Hopefully I will finish before the end of the week.Also if my subs are too deep, what is the way to make them fit? I can not add spacers to the front of the box. Should I just sand the back behind the magnet til it fits? Or just cut a hole in the back and cover it with possibly thin metal (1/8" steel)?
May 21, 201213 yr looks good mayneI would cut a hole where the magnet needs to sit the fiberglass the bottom side of the cut so you can have clearance.
May 21, 201213 yr Author Ah. I didn't think about fiberglass. Would I just put a patch or fabric across the hole and staple or glue or screw it to the box then fiberglass over it?
May 21, 201213 yr I would cut a piece to size, apply resin to the box to set it in place then resin over the mat
May 21, 201213 yr Steve Mead on here also did 4 sa-8's but in a newer style silverado under the seat i think. tuned in to see how you like the box fitment and sound.
May 22, 201213 yr Author just gotta add the top and front and the box will be ready to install the subs into.
June 19, 201213 yr Author Its ok so far. I have a bad rattling problem right now that is ruining the sound. Once I fix it, I will post some vids.

January 15, 201411 yr Author cant seem to fix the rattle, so i decided to change it up a little while i work on the box for the 8s... I decided to use my DC XL 18 m1 I had laying around with my new Pioneer AVH-5500BHS and Crescendo C1100.4 and Crescendo comps... Edited January 15, 201411 yr by sps1989
