ALLRIGHT I JUST FINISHED MY INSTALL... WITH A LCD, AMP, COMPS., AND 2 8" SUBS ALL POLK AUDIO... WE ARE NOW GOING TO CAST A MOLD OFF MY STEALTH BOX AND MAKE A COUPLE MORE OF THEM.. WHILE THIS IS BEING DONE WE ARE ALSO ADDING 2 MORE 8" SUBS IN FIBERGLASS BOXES MOLDED INTO THE BACK CORNERS.. THE STEALTH BOX SHOULD GIVE PLENTY OF CUBES FOR AT LEAST 1 12" SUB... WOULD ANYONE BE INTERESTED IN THESE IF WE KELP THE PRICE AROUND 100-150.. AND ABOUT THE SAME ON THE SIDE BOXES... AND WHILE WE R THERE WE R GOING TO MAKE A MOLD TO MAKE THE DOOR PLATES... THIS WILL BE DONE IN MOSTLY FIBERGLASS WITH OPPS FOR PAINT MATCH, CARBONFIBER OVERLAY, OR CARPET... ANY REPLYS WOULD BE WELCOMED

Easy on all "CAPS" there!

Are these C5 boxes you talking about, I see no years listed?

I am interested in a C5 box for the corner, post pictures please.

I'd be interested in a box for a 10" sub in C5 Z-06. Definitely post pics when you get a chance.

right now its just for a c-5 coupe but a friend of mine has a z06 we will getting a mold from too... that being said if anyone close has a c-6 that they will loan us for a couple of hours then could do them... as far as the fitment of subs. the lid or secound piece of the mold is modular and could be changed to fit anything upon request... the hole goal of this is to get a drop in box out there that has the room to hold larger speakers or more smaller ones and shed several pounds off a mdf box but still look like it came from the factory

While we are on the topic. Does anyone have any suggestions or know of any features they would like to have in a stealth box or a set of pods?
