I've used the same kreaper only because it's what I had lying in the shed lol my box is fukin heavy and still moves about in the boot

Milo have you ran a need of silicone on all the joints where the mdf meet to make it more air tight and if you want more of a deep thump than normal fill the box with wadding ( it's a bit like pillow stuffing) that's if you haven't done so and/or know about it

Will look bang tidy when it's all finished 1 thing I would recommend is a subwoofer grill for when you have a full boot it stops things from cracking the sub

here you go they was tested in india and they really dont get hot ive tested them not in india

the only down side to them is you have to use a alan key to get to the controls connecters ie sealed unit
