Hey Shady, I would not know the cost for packing alone, it was part of the overall install. The packing for the boot alone should not be much maybe below Rs 1000.

Thanks for the info.Will do it sometime next month

I have added one more subwoofer in parallel to the existing subwoofer so as to get a 2ohm load. Anwar also made a custom fibreglass enclosure inside the boot. Minimal space lost inthe boot inspite of having 2 subs. Performance is rocking. I need to get a grill for one of the subwoofers. There was no stock with Anwar. Here are the pics

Kwool! Looks really neat. And it's like having your cake and eating it too. Congrats!!!

Any idea what is the volume of each of those FG boxes?

dinu2506 · 27th March 2008, 19:25

Not measured it, but definitely in the region of 1 cu ft each. There is a large recess in the civic and it helped

I'm getting ready for stage 3. Getting the HU changed this weekend after lot of deliberation. This was something I thought I would never do in order to keep the sleek look of the dash intact. However, I have realized that this is the weakest link and need to do this upgrade so as to do justice to the remaining setup.

I am going in for a 7" touchscreen DVD player - JVC KW-AVX800. Have been hearing good feedback about this unit. Lot of tonal comtrols, time-alignment, 5V preouts for each channel etc etc. I am hoping this comes out well.

Looking forward to expert comments.

^^^

Will be a definite improvement over the stock head unit.

Hi Dinu,

Nice setup, the fitting is high quality especialy the vents in the rear tray for the subwoofer and the enclosures for the subwoofer.

I want to know how much you spent in total for the fitting? please provide breakup.

Are all your products with bill and warranty?

A nice understated install from Anwar. Well done, you must be happy.
