Thanks Esty for the link. Josh I have on in my car. If you want to come out to Claremont your more than welcome to take a look and measure. I think Jon with So Cal Vintage BMW has some in different colors he mentioned when he saw mine.

I'd love to get a look at yours and take some measurements. I can probably build a shell out of wood and fiberglass. Getting the cover stitched on nice is a different story....

buying one already made for a reasonable price would be ideal!

Unfortunately, i recently found out i can't attend the so-cal vintage show this year. A family vacation conflict.... grr...

I have met John before. i will try to contact him. thanks.

That a nice piece. I'd like one as well but my fabricating skills with fiberglass are null. Anyone know of any for sale or how to get a hold of Jon like someone mentioned above. Thanks alot

That is very similar to my design that I'm designing for my car except I'm gonna use 5.25in components.... ill post pics if and when I get to it!

[josh72ooh2]

The beauty of fiberglass is that you can sand it down, or add to it... the hard part will be making it symmetrical on both sides.

Definitely post some photos if you have them!

Very cool... If I can get a copy of the sketch I'll model it in 3D and even print it in a 3D printer... Molds could be made from that... Email the sketch and I model it up...

cool, thanks. I'll probably have to make my own, as I had to install 3 point seatbelts and they are right where the speakers would need to be.

[josh72ooh2]

It seems that most people have drilled through their rear shelf already and installed speakers that poke through to the trunk.

But for those of us with clean shelves... I hope to make my own as well and eventually offer them up to FAQ people who might want the same thing.
