this is awesome DIY. **I DIDNT WRITE THIS AND IT ISNT MINE**

(Give credit to those who deserve it)

LOTS of pics, detailed instruction from getting the mold of your trunk, to constructing the MDF rings.

Default timing belt/warranty question
Looks pretty good.Except,I can tell you now,you need alot more then 2 layers for a sub enclosure!! 2 layers might be strong,but it's not accoustically dead enough.
