68 kick panels and rear enclosure

Decided I'd finally do some kick panels and a rear enclosure for my truck

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure


Kick panels will be color matched & the enclosure will be wrapped in the same color/material as my bench seat ... Thanks

Looks great! A single 8" sub would go well in the middle of that rear one but looks great!

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure

Looks really good, I did the same thing with my kick panels. They turned out great and sounds good too. My sub behind the seat is a little different, built an enclosure out of MDF board and installed a 12" low profile sub. Where are you putting your amp/s?

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure

Placing my amps under my seat ... For the 1st time ever I didn't want to run subs in my vehicle.. Just something nice and simple so I can listen to some music

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure

Looks good, nice to see some bare bones type pictures as I'm about to do something similar. Focal component kicks and a rear enclosure with a JL W3 10" in the middle. I'm thinking amps/crossovers/distribution blocks behind the seat on one side and small storage type compartment behind the other.

That last pic is pretty grainy, is it covered with a material or painted?

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure

Hi new here, that rear panel is what I need to do for my 90 s10! Do you have a build thread? Or what material did you use?

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure

No I don't have a build thread.. I just used mdf board and fiberglass and a Lil body filler ... I'll try and get a pic of the back once I wire it up.. I just have it sitting in the truck right now

Re: 68 kick panels and rear enclosure

Very nice job!! Are you a member on a fiberglass fabrication forum? I thought I saw where you had a build thread?

No not on a fiberglass forum..
The enclosed sits in the corners and is made to a tight fit.. I don't wanna bolt it in or make it a permanent setup... I haven't had any problems with it moving at all
