    Highjack this thread as much as possible. -It's good advertisement ...I need some way to pay off my student loans.

    Pictures: Don't mind the pre molded carpet -it's just set in place. I spent the afternoon sanding & a bit of dust settled on the inside of the enclosure so the "impurities" you see in the glass is just water from being wetted down.

    This enclosure is a bit different. I decided to extend the top left side out a bit in hopes to gain a bit of Vas. -Volume often runs between .7 -.75 cf w/ the LGT enclosures, so they are on the small side, but it's the best I can do w/ the application given. Most of my enclosures are supplied w/ polyfill.

    ^Ha, I'm not sure how to take that. -It sounds even better. To be honest, I'm not 100% satisfied on how that one turned out. Sure, I gained a bit of Vas, but that little "modification" I did the enclosure totally disrupted the flow of the OEM carpet. -Of course the "modification" being my little "extension" in the top left area of the enclosure.


    -I used to supply grills w/ each enclosure ..which looked even better, not only cosmetically, but the functionality was great! Issue is not all 10" drivers are universal ...different excursions, recess, etc. A lot of people went w/ these http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_11615_GS-Audio-BG-10.html

    Lol! I just meant that i don't have a Leggy and didn't know exactly where the placement you were shooting for was. hahaha. I currently have a custom box built to the specs of my sub...but i prefer yours as it tucks away nicely! If you're interested in doing a WRX custom enclosure...i have some interest in being your guinea pig!:D

    Ah, that seat is being filled by an 02.' I am not sure the differences between generations as far as pre-molded carpet compatibility, but I only assume they differ. I'm putting in my next order at Express Composites within the next 3 weeks. By that time, there should be a review posted on MnSubaru. PM me if interested.

    ^ Yes, they are spendy. The one's for the LGT MSRP/Retail for $350.00 from CAS. CAS is THE manufacturer for vehicle specific enclosures for the LGT. What CAS does not tell you is the additional $25.00 fee for fabricating an enclosure specifically suited for the consumers driver. Not sure on the manufacturer, but I am assuming they run between or around $325.00 - $360.00ish. There is a reason they are set at that pricepoint. -If anyone has glassed before, I'm sure they can relate. I do not charge that much. PM me if interested.

    Production is the key, the more you make the less the $.... At least if the vehicle stays the same.
    Glassing- PPPPFFFFFHHH, just hope you have a place to ruin for all the mess it makes! Wait that was me doing it.....
