just started on instaling 2 JVC 6" 4way conponent speakers under my boot lid mounted flush on a board. its a bit of work but worth it. just thought i would share

pics of the boot

sounds good mate
some pics would be great of the progress
give everyone an idea on how to do it

What's the reason for putting them in your boot? Are you building a show-car, or is this just for showing off at McDonald's carparks...

Im putting my money on McDonalds Carparks.
Honestly i would put them INSIDE the car, but its different so points given!

IMO An LCD Screen + PS2 or similar would of been better

They would be handy for camping trips or bonfires. Reverse the car up, pop the trunk and play the tunes.:)

yeah a lot of times at parties and stuff where there is no music i have just used my car but it doesnt give my system justice as the speakers are inside the car, so i needed some that would put it outside the car, so naturally under the boot lid was a good place, i have too much time on my hands now that uni is over. and no i dont ever sit in Mcdonalds car parks

nicely done man, that exactly what I want to do :D

Just a question, how did you get the spacing right for the gap behind the MDF so that the speakers magnets can fit?

looks good mate, thats something thats going in the cressida when its done

i placed two speakers in the gaps in the metal reinforcment in the boot
then the magnets held them inplace, then i got a laser pointer on a telescope mount and aimed it in the center of the speaker, took down the speaker and placed the wood board accross. marked out where the laser was still pointing woth a pen and then drilled the 2, 6inch holes, because the magnets are sitting in the gaps and ive mounted the wood on top of the reinforcments all i have to do is add speaker spaces

That is quite the idea, I have a spare set of 6 inchers lying around too... might steal your idea!

well finally got some free time and actually got around to finishing it, design changed a bit, but still same really, i love it, lol the boot lid feels a lot heavier now

looks awesome mate, might have to copy ur idea when i get some $$$$

hey mate looks good well done:)

thanx if any 1 wants a wiring diagram ill scan my one i made and post it, my speakers turn on when the boot opens, and the back parcell shelf ones turn off, so i didnt need to install another amp

Post up the diagram friend :)

Looks good dude. You should take your time and take some good piccies. :ninja:
