Awesome setup! I'm digging the sub enclosure. How much did it cost for the enclosure?

i would say Roughly 100... but as you make more its cheaper ... because i still have left over material...

im planning to make another one...and a custom box where the stock sub is...out of the 100 its mainly the sub itself..

the carpet on the sub is temporary...im planning to buy one of the trunk mat and cut it to custom fit and match the sub box with the OEM carpet

Nice man! I'll be planning to learn fiberclass enclosure making soon. Any chance when you make the 2nd sub enclosure, you'll do a video tutorial?

I used to carry one of those X shaped lug wrenches, because, as we all know, the short little lug wrenches are not long enough. Some time ago, a plumber friend suggested I use what plumbers call a "cheater." This is an iron pipe with a sufficient inside diameter that it will slip over the handle of the lug wrench supplied by the manufacturer. These are easily obtained at any hardware store for a few dollars. You want about 24" or so, and the advantages are that you get even more torque than the crossbar wrench provides and it stores in the trunk in a very small space. I always get one for my cars, and just carry the wrench into the store to be sure the pipe will slide over the handle.
