    I will take a Drives side 2+2 when available.
    I'll also offer my address as a single point drop off for Brisbane/gold/sunshine coast members if it can save freight.

    People can collect, or I can bring to an event, or for sunny cost people, I can take with me when I go to Gympie next.

    Cheers Pex

    That would be fantastic if i have enough interest for your state
    It should make the shipping price more affordable
    (If other well known members are willing to do this in other states Let me know)

    2+2 boxes will be made ASAP
    I have organised some trim panels from LNP for plaster casting
    And PTRS has offered me his boot to assemble & perfect the Boxes
    (Many thanks to both:D :D :D :D )

    They look great. It is a problem to get the right size box and still have some sort of function, ie getting your targas in, which is a must over here as it is rainning again.

    This was my solution.

    Excuse the saw dust but mine are mad from wood and MDF. Not that good with fibreglass. Covered in sound dedening and real leather.

    Hey guys,

    I haven't forgotten about these, it's taken a bit longer than anticipated to get the molds right due to work etc

    I'm currently making the first box using the drivers side mold, and will post pics as soon as it's done

    The passengers side mold will be complete this weekend

    12" Was a stretch

    You are not the only one who wants 15" boxes
    But jeez can you close the boot with that:D :D :D :D :D
    But these boxes will only take up to a 12"

    Maybe once i have got most of my other projects complete

    What are the dimensions?

    soundstream being gay as they are, this is all they give you, no paperwork with subs, i duno the xxx's are odd, no info on em

    http://soundstream.com/subwoofers-xxx.htm

    but i think mounting depth is about 10" and magnet is about 11" accross

    oh also any more news on the 6x9 boxes ^_^

    I haven't designed the box for the 2+2 yet, but 2 str is slightly raised to allow for a false floor to be used. I'll more than likely do the same thing for the 2+2.

    Nemz, everything is coming along (slowly) this weekend I'll hopefully have time to work on the 6x9 pods.

    the 6x9 boxes were bolted down with 3 L brackets and and 12 screws, but just the options to screw them down leaves it with a lil bit of movement, but no chance of dislodging
