Boat store: That sounds like a good idea, it is just that I live in the middle of no-where..LOL and the closest boat store is 2 hours away. I will look on Amazon to see what I can find.

MDF: I think I will switch up to MDF and do this right. I don't remember what "grade" MDF to use??? I didn't think that Lowes/Home Depot carried the grade that we are suposed to use???

I have some car audio experience, but not as much as I would like when it comes to building custom stuff. So sorry if I ask too many questions, but I am looking for a lot of ideas. I want to build a console with one 15" sub, the floor shifter, two cup holders, and I am not sure if I want anything else in it. Maybe the head unit? And then I want to make custom door panels with pods for the component system speakers. This is for my '74.
