you can't post pics from geocities, maybe you could change the pictures to links. I looked at the pics though. Do you have instructions anywhere that you're using for this. Most people lay down tin foil along the spare tire well and then lay down the fiberglass, did you do that? If I were doing it, I would lay the tin foil, lay the fiberglass a little bit thicker than needed, and then sand it smooth.

ok call me stupid, but I still dont get it. You make a mold of the trunk, from what the pics looked like, the same size and everything of the trunk, to make a box? Do you seal over the space for the spare and mount the speakers in that? facing up outa the box, or down into? Down into with a good seal would majorly increase your base.
k thanks
