Bit of an update before Billing .....

Now been able to spend some time sorting out the ICE install. This is the first time I've done a proper build as before the ICE has just been a functional affair, hopefully this is now more of install.....

First started making a wood surround and fibreglassing the sparewheel well ...



After about 10 layers of fibre glass next was to put an MDF top onto the sub enclosure, also trail fitted the amp rack, gives you an idea of the layout ...





Next job was to carpet the flooring and install the JL 12W6 sub ...





Also fitted in the 1 farad power cap ...



And did a nice tidy job of the fuses ....



I then trimmed up the amp rack and mounted my two Philips DAP600 amps....



Also put in a chrome fire extingusher "just in case".



Also fitted and plumbed in the nitrous gauge and got the blue LED lighting working ...

I then mounted up the Sony active crossover network ....



I then wired it all in , had a good hoover out and mounted the Nos bottle on the rear strut brace and job done !





Gave it a good work out today - can't believe how low the JL sub goes - and there's only on 12" and the garage door was rattling - played my Moby album ("Play") and my guts shook !!!

Quite pleased with the overall finish, just need to clean every where now as everthing has got MDF dust on it!!

See you at Billing - got a spot on the Total Vauxhall stand!
