Default New box design.. trick or trash?

For ext tacoma.



all objects modeled by me. basically "filler"

but do you think this would be nice, or trashy? Id' do the box in lt. grey carpet.

There would be a carpeted grill hiding the sub

add some fans to the back of the amp boxes, and it should be ok...

looks cool otherwise :cool: :thumbs:

(you forgot to put the "e" on your sub :p: )

I take it your still wanting use of the jump seats? If so looks like the ticket.

That sits on the jump seats, they fold down onto a raised platform on the back. I'm not sure why Toyota did it that way.

Shockingly enough, there's a box the EXACT SIZE on speakerhole for <$30 that can act as the centerbit. Now I've just got to come up with $300 for that bad azz 1000+watt handling sub, and power it with my 230x1 amp. Mwahahah.

it looks pretty good to me but that is a strong point about putting fans in the amp boxes. GOOD POINT!

knowing me i would have gone and overheated them. :crazy: :iagree:

My amps don't even get slightly warm... not worried about it :) I will probably put a fan in the 1000 watt amp side though.
