Default Fiberglass Sub Enclosure.

I want to make a fiberglass sub enclosure, but haven't any idea where to begin. I've made countless MDF enclosures, but I want to get my sub into the side compartment on teh driver side.

Anyone know of a write up that someone here did or some tips. What do i need, how thick should it be? Any help would be great.


Thanks.

hmmm....well if you search for sub box by user name jestnomen or brrman you'll find a few posts.

There's many tutorials out there, maybe brrman can post the ones he gave me back when I did it. I can't seem to find them.

yes - it is very easy to use fiberglass - just messy, and the more you use it the easier it gets.
