And here it is, ran through:



I took the center console out and ran the power cable below it to the back seat, under the carpet.



Here it is coming through the removed back seat:



More routing and taping, because im not picky... yeah thats a tiny distro block, but im only running 1 amp, so i dont care



Back to the trunk, along the top where the trunk meets the backseat:



Here you can see the amp, mounted upside down. I used some feet and self-tapping screws to screw it to the top of the trunk... NOT the lid. You can see the EU-700s massive magnets poking out



My fiberglass materials for my new project



And heres the first 2 layers of fiberglass laid down.



That blue stuff is tape - I am fiberglassing an enclosure to fit into the spare... I am laying down a 1.5" MDF baffle on top and finding a 5" or so deep 10" subwoofer to place in there. I should get about 1 cu feet after displacement, so space is not an issue. This is the only progress I've made so far because its SO DMAN COLD NOW. I have about 4 more layers to glass, then sanding, then sealing the top on and finding a driver.
