Thanks for the feedback. I'm not runnig much, I have my REAL system on my Turbo convertible. The datsun has 6x9" rear speakers, 6" in the doors with a high output deck and rerouted power cables.

I did the logo by cutting out the letters in cardboard and then fitting them to the MDF. Then using a heat gun, lay the vinyl over it and there you go. The whole system from go to whoa was about 50 hours which included testing the sound response curve and tuning the system using RTA software in my laptop.

If there's anyone in Perth interested in putting a system into their own car, Please contact me through my website where there are also images of my past work on other cars.

hey anb008,
Those door panels look great. What's underneath the covers in the trunk? It's a bit unusual to completely cover up everything - are you worried about theft? What material is that in the trunk anyway? Are there speakers under the cover and if so are the covers "transparent" to sound? Thanks for the info!
Michael

Thanks mperdue...

The boot/ trunk panelling is made from MDF (also known as craftwood) and is covered in upholstery vinyl that is very stretchy with the help of a heat gun.

Behind the jack brace (which has been mounted in the factory Datsun location) is the fuel tank and the side walls are simply cosmetic.

Under the floor is the spare wheel, jack, jumper cables, toolkit, spare hoses and even a picnic rug !!! There is also a panel that covers the tail light assemblies. As for covering it up, I prefer the extremely neat and clean look.

I'm assuming you are asking is there are extra speakers in the boot/ trunk. The answer is no. The datsun is my 'shopping trolley' so to speak so I can't justify going all out on it I've saved that for my other car which is below:
