Custom fiberglass enclosure RX330

![Default](https://www.clublexus.com/forums/images/icons/icon1.gif)
So i use to be an installer and like to entertain my time by building systems for friends and family. Recently turned attention to the RX330 which was leaning toward a low key, low budget, out of the way method of adding low end bass without losing space or the ability to get to the tools, and compartments under the trunk mat. Below is just a few quick photos of the process of the 10" sub enclosure that was constructed and installed along with a simple sub amp in the right side smaller compartment under the trunk mat. ***Question*** would anybody pay for these? I can rip these out for others since i notice there is no clean looking sub solution for these vehicles. Feedback please...

If you go through the thread a lil you can see a few questions others have asked and that was actually one of them. You can get into the compartment below the enclosure its where i mounted the sub amp actually, the enclosure is not bolted in. It fits snug into the rear wall and the rear wheel well and does not move from its location after driving i have learned as if it did i was going to have to find a mount solution but its not needed.
Also information on pricing is now in OP for anybody who would like to own one of these.

Cmon, how many times will we use the lame jack? How many times HAVE you used it? Its a waste of space & only adds dead weight. Really, if its raining, dark, cold, cars flying by on the highway. Would you really want to change your tire with stone-age equipment? $60 annual for AAA. $5/ month for peace of mind anyone? Our factory jack is a nice gesture, but cmon. It'll be a pain in the ***. Call for AAA & have it done securely & safely.
With that said, I threw out the lane jack & used that space for something I use EVERYDAY. Every second im in the vehicle. a badass subwoofer. I didnt want to sacrifice ANY space (the rx330 doesnt have that big of a trunk to begin with lol), & i wanted it to be hidden (so robbers would break in & steal it).
Check out my solution & tell me wat you think. Took me 3 tries to get this right. If anybody cares to hear the story, lemme know. Hooked in with Vaisz mp3 adapter.

Fair point but piece of mind knowing it's there because I am capable of changing my own wheel. Just make sure you have it somewhere when you need it. Let's see change tyre myself with jack vs potentially waiting a long time for road side assistance (what we call it in Australia) to attend (potentially a while depending on how far away from the metro you are), I think I will keep my jack with me. Just saying.
