Pics???  What did you make the center console out of?  MDF?  Fiberglass?

I'll eventually put buckets and a center console w/downfiring sub (probably single 10" or 12") in mine.  I'd like ideas.

BTW I like what Car Audio and Electronics magazine had to say about these subs in their Subwoofer comparison test: Round one article.  "The model submitted for this comparison was the BMF W12D; that is one of three models in Crossfire's top-of-the-line BMF subwoofers lineup (I'm guessing B stands for "Bad", and MF, well, you can add that yourself)." Here a link to the comparison article if you're interested.

I have a high-end SQ system under construction (albiet very slow construction) in my truck. I'm using an Alpine 6012 downfiring in a custom centre console between the leather buckets I put in. No room for amps in the cab so they are going in an enclosure at the front wall of the cab.

:o Looks like that'll be the last time she rides in the ole '76.  Did she hit the cone or the surround?  But I guess you should consider some proper grilles for protection.
