ok guys

I am in need of inspiration, and hopefully someone to advise me on where i can get it made....

I am doing a new boot install. Now, this is NOTHING bling/full-on, a great example of something similar to what I am after is in Petes (ICEMAN)s missus' Leon.....

I want to have as much bootspace left as possible. For ICE, I will have 1 10" subwoofer and 1 physically small amplifier (something just enough to power the sub - nothing major just cheapish)

I wanted a stealthbox made by Auto Acoustics. However, after emailing them they state it definately WILL NOT fit into my car as I have the rear-strut brace fitted. (As in RobDons) I struggle to believe them as from the pics on their website it looks like it will fit - however they will not supply dimensions so I am a bit stuck.

Perhaps if someone on here has one they could let me know?

Other than that, can u post up ur pics of ur install (I am not really interested in boots FULL of ICE, just stealthy ones.
cheers all

any more people out there? Surely Pete isnt the only one with a stealthy install?

I have not got the ability or time to do it myself - i will have to go to one of those pro ICE installers and get them to do one based on my ideas. Not sure how much they will charge tho :(

I'll nip out and take a look at the box now

Yeah its a 12" sub (infinity vq) , no room on the box to fit an amp though!!

6cm to the left - ie it should have plenty of space then!

Matey, u r a STAR. Think I might risk ordering one at some point - auto acoustics are obvioulsy talkin out their arses again!

By the way, what do u hold it onto the side of the car with - the supplied velcro or something a bit stronger? And I assume u dont use ur boot light anymore?

It's held in with the supplied velcro, but it fell over a few times and is now minus the perspex cover :doh: , but it's stayed put now for a few months

Sounds nice though, much better than the previous standard box I had.

I wired an "iceled tron" as a boot light cos as you say , the original one is covered!

scotty - thats my thoughts too - want to keep the spare really. Not sure why, i just do. I want my install to be very simple and OEM looking really.
