I want to build a false floor on the rear of my car as a base to build my sound system on, but i'm a little lost.

Whats the best way to create a template to cut out the wood to the shape of my floor?



lol take no notice of the speakers, they were a joke.

[dontpannic]

are you putting the false floor all the way? I cut my MDF using my old boot carpet as a template...

[CossieDan]

i did the same

try using the carpet for the boot part and trimming some cardboard til it fits for the forward parts.

And if you are doing the build over where the backseats were too.

Use the bottom of the rear bench as a template

[Zak]

well i dont have the carpet or rear seat lol, any suggestions?

[M1K3Y_B]

Where have they gone?

I know they aren't in the car.

Did you give them away or something?

[Zak]

i dumped em somewhere

if you build it out of a few bits of wood, make sure they are all the right way, i dont want to admit but i will just get a very large box a cut around it.

Huh?

in other words i build the boot build went to place it in, then i realised i put the two parts on back to front and they dint fit, just check and check again with these things.

I think he means get a big sheet of cardboard and cut it to shape, then use this as a template.

[Zak]

Anyone got any ideas where i could go to get a big enough piece of cardboard to cover the rear?
cheers,
Zak.
