    2012 Civic Simple Budget Build








    False floor from a few angles




    Amp rack bolted to the floor


    Panel removed for access/maintenance






    Temporary sub stage. We are going to build a thinner/wider ported box for the woofer. Then build a trim panel to finish off the trunk. That will be done at a later date.

    Very nice work! I like how the floor has that angle down towards the amplifiers.
    Are you not entertained?!?!

    Thank you. There's a few things I'm not happy with.
    1: non matching amps(drives me crazy)
    2: factory trunk color is almost impossible to match.

    Overall though, it's one of those system that just work. The radio has some rudimentary time alignment and a decent eq section. It sounds really damn good with a "not bad" stage and a decent center image.

    I'd say you did a good job.

    Non-matching amps and some of the other equipment bothers me too, but most people seem happy just to have amplification.
    Are you not entertained?!?!

    Nice work! Is the sub box secured in any way?

    There are some brackets on the backside that aren't seen.

    Doesn't even look like the same car. Great Work. I agree on the non-matching amps, It just bothers me.

    It also sounds like a different car. All of the same equipment with a new head unit and a solid install. It is one of those cars that you think isn't gonna sound all that great, but ends up sounding like it cost 10x more than it did.
