Homemade speaker box for 6x9s

Might be. I do a lot of 'junkyarding'. Anyway, it wasn't really necessary and it looks better without it.

Is it difficult to get to the spare tire? Did nyone notice that the luggage straps are missing?

I'd be a lot more worried about a 5-10lb speaker enclosure hitting me in the back of the head at 35mph+ that I would be about a coffee cup or a soccer ball. Neither the coffee or soccer ball are gonna kill me.

No, but the hot coffee can spill on your leg, or the soccer ball or toy can get in the way of the pedals and you could get in a collision with something.

I really like the Motorsport rear replacement panel (just like Ramses's box). It has two 6x9 mounts and a center hole to allow air to flow in/out. It fits very nice and is decently priced. It may be fairly easy to make your own panel like this. In my opinion, individual boxes will only get in the way.

With all due respect to MSA, maybe someone could take measurements or make a template of the MSA speaker panel ( or one they made) , and scan it for others to try? I know that several people have made their own, so why not share the design?

The reason I chose not to use a spaker panel is because I can't see how you get to the taillight bulbs and a couple other things.

The rear section still raises up for access to the spare, etc. as shown in my earlier post. I don't have a need for the luggage straps as I don't carry luggage in that car.
