I want to put a 6X9 facing the front of the car by the strut tower, where the wheel hump is. Is it posible for any of you to fabricate this or not. Just give me a price. I need 1 enclosure on each side.



Thanks !

make it yourself from MDF and put some glass on it if

you really want it.



There really isnt a need for it for some 6x9s. I would just

carpet it to match the hatch, why you need it in glass?

they are $500 for a reason, they take a long time to make nice, especially if you want it painted.



Some people work for nothing and may make it cheaper,

I personally dont know any of those type of people.



I would charge $100 a hour.

it smells and its messy.



Actually we get $105-$125, but not doing speaker boxes, working on boats.



No one is going to pay $100 a hour for a speaker box, but I could

make it look "smooth as glass" when its done, lol.



Also with glass- its not how it looks today, but how it stands up to a few years of abuse, thats when quality glass work proves itself.
