Cheers thats the word i was looking for!industrial!thats the theme for the boot,one of my dads work utes had checkered plateing on the back tray i was like hmm if that was in my boot,i rekon it would look sick!the idea was givin to me by a mate of mine,said its not too expensive,and it would stand out,its the real stuff just in case you didnt know:D
should see the look of all the holden owners faces wen im crankin my tunes down at the car parks,there standin round wit the carpet boot sound system set ups and i got checkered plateing!booya!

cheers yeah its still there dude,when i first started the install,the guys who installed it i asked em to make it so i can get it out but they didnt!:rant:
so the otha day when i finished my boot lid,i got them to make it so i can get my tyre out,its still in there just infront on the subs theres a checkered plate that just sits there,then under it the bit of wood has been cut so i can lift it up and the leaver for that wooden board is out so its easy to take it out,all i have to do is push both amp walls to the side and pull that checkered boarding plate out,a long process just to change a tyre i know,but its beter than havin no tyre and getin stuck out in the middle of no where!im sure theres a few magnas out there wit boot installs and stil have their spare tyre still in,it would be a realy stupid thing to take it out.

Looks great mate!
Can i ask how much just the custom boot install cost you to make up? I'm looking at a similar structure design, also do you have progress pics of it?

hey mate it was um 700 for the boot install plus wiring for the subs,the boot lid interior itself cost 200,i got it all discounted,would of cost heaps more,good friends of the family installed it for me,i discussed wit the owner of the car audio dealers wat i wanted,they did some measurements and gave me a quick sketch wat it would look like,they had to make a few changes when installing it,had some vinyl put above the sub box to hide the wires,or do you mean progress pics of like b4 and after?

Awesome, sound about like what I was expecting for mine, hopefully i can save a bit by doing it myself and using wood offcuts etc. Yeah did they take any photo's of it whilst it was being installed? like while before they make it all pretty and jsut show the wood construction inside?
