those are aero-port flanges. looks clean. if i may make a suggestion without pissing in your cheerios, i would've used a router to make a flush area for the port flanges so they sit flush with the upholstery. that's just me though. very creative either way :thumbup:

thanks.

as far as the flush mounting...try pull it off and if you can you will be my personal role model :stickoutt

in short, if I wanted to do them flush mounted I would use the ports without such a wide flange. second, the plastic shelf with a carpet is not as easy to work with as say MDF. third, and probably most important, the shelf is not flat to begin with, so a flush mounting would be a disaster.

Years ago a friend of mine had a similar setup in an Accord coupe, 3 12" JL W-whatever, they were the best at the time and had a chrome magnet the size of my head. Anyway, it was a bandpass box ported through the rear deck, and one night some drunk girl in his backseat dropped her keys down the port. The custom box had a plexiglass front on it, damn it was funny watching her keys dance when the bass hit.

i was under the wrong assumption that you reconstructed the rear deck out of MDF. still either way, looks good. i am procrastinating the install of my sub box still because i don't know if i want to keep my car. that and i still have to build it :D
