Re: 5000TQ value



Frank,
I'm really not sure if it will or won't fit. You will probably have to
check with a dealer or a salvage yard or maybe even physically compare.

I designed it to slip into the front 2/3 of the spare tire well. It is
carpeted and is molded exactly. I then made a newcover that goes over
the entire trunk area. The cover has a heavy steal grate thatallows air
to pass through and allows luggage...to be placed on top. The only
serious draw back is there is no longer a spare tire.

The enclosure was designed for a Rockford power 12" driver.
(coincidently a number of different drivers will work with the
enclosure). It is roughly 1.5 cubic feet with a flex port of 3'
diameter.

It sounds great! but in the sedans a lot of power is needed to overcome
the metal between the rear seat and the trunk.

I tried an enclosue firing through the rear seats ski rack hole but
there was the undesirable effect of a bandpass box with no avility in
estimating how to tune it.

I have about $150- $200 just in materials and a couple days of forming
it... HOWEVER, since there is not much demend for this type of
application...I would rather see someone else get some enjoyment out of
it rather than throwing it out. SO if you or someone else is realy
interested, you can have it for whatever shipping would run.

(probably late January)
