Official 1st Single Cab Build

[tech2332 3]

Here is my 3rd system in this truck.

1st was 2 12" Memphis PR's in SMALL PreFab Enclosure, & Cheap 400 Watt Amp

2nd was a 10" SSA Icon in Ported Box built by Audibel Customs & MTX 600 Watt Amp

Now 3rd: Audioque 12" (Purchased Online This Morning) , 2.20-2.50 Cu. Ft. Tune to ~37 HZ ~32 Sq. In. Of Port, HF 1000.1, Second Skin on rear cab wall

This will be the first box I build for a system so I'm hoping all goes good.

Second Skin Arrived & Installed

Also Purchased a Tox Kit from eBay to remove seats

HF 1000.1

Pioneer-5000UB & Flash Drive & Amp Bass Knob

Wiring under driver seat that's going to get organized.

EDIT: Also Box Design & I'll hopefully get some Rockford Components and a Amp to replace front speakers, and front tweeter.

If you have any tips, or advice please let me know,

Also, I have a question for the box.

Should I get a terminal cup or should I just drill a hole and squeeze the wires through and put the wires through the box?

How do you guys seal the hole? Can I use fiberglass to seal it?

Honestly, a terminal cup would be fine, just run silicone around the cup from the inside. It's not a lot of power so runnin 8-12awg speaker wire through a cup isn't gonna effect anything even if competing.

I know, it's not really for competing or anything just the ease of doing it. Just to lazy to buy a terminal cup.

Lol, ok then get a scrap piece of wood and start pulling out drill bits. Find one that makes you have to force the wire through the drill hole.

Once you find that, use that for the wire then silicone II around the hole after the wire is ran through on the inside AND outside.

Updated Design:

I now plan on using 1 6" Aero port firing out the drivers side. It will only have the external aero, the inside will be "aeroless".

$30 W/ Tax( I only paid $10 since I found a $20 on the ground. )
