Today i did a spot of work on my boot install. nothing fancy.

I used 3mm "hardboard", the rolf harris board to me and you, to make a boot shaped cutout.

This sites snug in the boot and has no fixings as it doesnt move because of the rear arches / strut mounts.

To this i have screwed the carpet, and it looks very tidy.

I wanted to use thin stuff to save me space, thick mdf would add weight etc.

So if you are thinking of a false floor i can deffo. suggest this stuff for about ?4 from b+q.

Ill put some pics up soon.

How have other people "tied" down their subs/amps?

(p.s if you havent got the original boot carpet this will make things slightly more difficult) - as im sure everyone already knows.

i've got a MDF one knocking about somewhere out of my old fez, used 15mm MDF! weighed a bit, but i needed it to support the 15" sub and amp i had in there at the time!

Yeah i was like that for a bit wires everywhere but its quite tidy now all tucked away. added a bit of a chav effect i must say open the boot and the neons come on to the sides of the sub.

Well its not too o.t.t just a nice simple glow so i can see what im doing in the boot at night

this is mine but it now looks better as i've sprayed the carpet to match the car(black) and got a new Vibe sub
