Anyone interested in a Z sub box?
Here's a couple pics of two sub boxes I've made. They act as a partition and sub box in one. I can make these with a cutout for whichever subwoofer you choose square as shown or round if you want. 2 or 4 woofers ect. Let me know what you're interested in and I can probably make it happen. They weigh approx 24-25lbs. The one's shown are 8.5-9" deep into the trunk as you can see, but dimensions can be adjusted according to the subs and could be made as shallow as 4-5" to save trunk space. PM me if interested!

That is outstanding work 01QSZ06, do you have a template or dimensional drawing of the partition outline. I would like to make my own divider?

Very- Very nice work ! How are you connecting up to the Bose system to get the bass feed ? Can you plug in/out/remove easily if you need the space ?
Looks good ...........

Great looking box! I had a similar idea before, but I'm not that good with wood...
I'd also be interested in one (for 2 - 10" round subs...)
Please email me with a price...

This box can be customized almost anyway you want... ported, plexiglass, angled subs, etc. If you have an idea and want to see if I can make it pm me or email j_burback@yahoo.com The box pictured (2/3/4 subs) I can do for a donation. Can't charge real money as I'm not a forum vendor!

I'm interested in doing something a little more exotic! I'd like to to a partinio replacement, that fits forward a little more (like almost giving me my entire trunk area (my car is a C5Z06). Something that goes at like an angle, 45 or so from the base just behind the seats to the rear.
So like:
_|| seat
partition
_|| __|_
\hatch hole
I'd want something like:
_||/---_
\
That starts directly behind the seat! (hahaha, those "pics" are horrible
)So I'd rather lose the "shelf" behind the seats and optimize the space left in the "trunk"
And in fiberglass/plexi, I'd get it painted MY to match the car, probably do 2 10's and a nice amp mounted real slick looking in the center (?)
I'm up/over in St. Augustine, BTW!
Thanks for any insight, info, pricing, etc!

I think I have a basic idea of what you're looking for.. Give me a couple days to look at mine and maybe come up with a concept drawing. I think you'd better cross your fingers on this one though! Josh

I went to CarToys today and got a quote on a subbox for my Z and they wanted freakin 450 bucks for a basic box that just sits there. Your box is awsome and I love how nice it blends in with the interior. Very nicely done. You should startup a website and you could sell these things like crazy. I might buy one from you.

I'd love to sell them like crazy, unfortunately I have a day job too. This is more of a for fun venture... Which is why the donation is so reasonable, you really can't beat it. Shipping is around $50 . I would estimate it takes me around 10-15 hours to build one but have to do it in stages to let the glue dry, then the silicone, etc. I would love to make 3-4 a month though, I love woodworking and hooking up fellow corvette/audio enthusists!

Im ready to buy one now. However, I have the lingenfelter mini tub kit. Do you have a way to adjust for that difference in the wheel wells. How could we get those measurements accurately?
I probably just want 2 8" subs. I will be putting in aftermarket clarion dual din stereo/dvd.
