Is fiberglass hard to use cause i wanna do a custom boot install for my suby instead of using the normal box.... Also will it still sound good

It sounds exactly the same... and yes its easy to use.

but VERY time consuming... took me 2 weeks (on and off) to make dual fibreglass boxes. Dont try and make 2 its ****ing hard to make them identical.

not rocket science... but i think ive read something about getting it to hold up and sit steady in the boot under driving conditions etc.

Might have to give it a go my sub is heavy in its normal box about 18-20kg's

Like i said i've got twin boxes in my car and i had one in there to see how it would go... nothing else to hold it but the perfect fit you get with FG and it didn't budge at all... never has... neither have my newly fitted 6x9 pods.

my twin sub boxes weigh the same as one box (same volume as one) in MDF

My whole boot install weighs about 30kgs... including subs amp boxes covers etc.

I can email you a mini tutorial i made on how to make speaker pods its basically EXACTLY the same, except a bigger scale... and i made refrence as to how they're different half way through... also theres a few sites on how to do it too. Use my tutorial and their pics and you'll have no trouble.
