February 6, 201312 yr Author Little update. Murdermat deadener should be here in the next day or so. Finishing up box build, don't think i did all that bad considering it is my first.Back, sides and port glued in.First coat of resinSecond coat of resin and resined bot of top before i glue it on.
February 6, 201312 yr Author Also what should i put in the rear of the car?? Another set of components, just Mids, or coax??
February 7, 201312 yr Author Update, Murdermat came in. Sub finally in box and in car, not deadened yet. Will post up some videos of flex and what not tomorrow. Will also post pics of Murdermat. Pics of box in car: Yay no trunk left... And actually the way its in there i can't even put my back seat back in... Will have to see if i can turn it while it's in the trunk. Will also post some pics of the box out of the trunk tomorrow as well. Would do it now, but damn this thing is pucking heavy to pick up alone... Plan on glassing the outside this weekend and painting. Anyone have any suggestions as to what to put on the bottom of the box so it will slide easier?? Edited February 7, 201312 yr by Fireitup
February 7, 201312 yr I don't think you would want it to slide around back there getting dinged up. As for the rear you could run a set of coax for fill, and a put a nice set of comps up front if you don't have it yet. Props for scoring the Xcon at a great price and thanks for serving.
