tell me what you think of my new design

[wafsman 0]

so i was originally going to go with a blowthrough design, but have been reading other build logs and posts and came up with a new design. don't quite know if it is still a blowthrough design or not, but this is what i got.

the plan is to take out the rear window of the truck, seal it with the rubber boot replacement to this enclosure in the bed of the truck.

the view that you see is what will be facing the cab of the truck. the bottom wall under the space for the rear window should come up to the line above where it says 'KonFUSEed', the rest will be open.

i was thinking of getting a piece of plastic trim to go around the outside and still doing the bottom half in bedliner and painting the top half to match the truck. the hole in the middle will be a plexiglass window so i can still see behind me.

let me know what you think.

i see what your saying, didn't think about that.

but i did figure out that i had enough room to just mount them on the back.

i think this might work better.

I love the design, I was about to suggest mounting them on the wall so they wont be hanging or in the way but you beat me to it.

i have a couple more questions about my setup.

first, how would you all run the wires from the battery in front to the one in back? i was thinking maybe just drilling through the bed and using some rubber grommets, any better ideas?

second is how would you run the wiring for the amps to hide it well? i was thinking of drilling holes and running the wires behind the whole enclosure, then attaching 1x2's around the edges and place another board over the back with the wires running in between the gap of the back two pieces, any better ideas?

Design looks good! If running your power wire under the truck from front to back use this type of grommet http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/STINGER-PG34-PRO-GROMMET-WATERPROOF-1%2F0-GAUGE-1%22-HOLE_W0QQitemZ130333934914QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20090929?IMSfp=TL0909291410001r23527

Also I would run your wires behind your enclosure and use some kind of spacer to raise your amps and drill a center hole under your amps that way you can run your wires underneath, it makes for a clean install.

that sounds cool, thanks for the ideas.

x2, good idea on that mounting design you gave.
