Can someone post a DIY MDF rear shelf conversion?

Here you can post things about ICE (In Car Entertainment). Like how to install GPS navigation, a DVD-player and other yuppie-stuff. This category might be moved to "those other things" in the end...

Can someone does this for us???

I think it may help for those who miss having their 6x9s etc mounted where they were designed to be.This is to save messing around trying to get decent sound from the rear pockets,which incidentally,happen to be right behind the front seats as we know!!!!! :lol:

Ah yes, I made one with wood and carpet using a measure-lint, pencil and saw. Always keep in mind you want to use hinges somewhere since you need to access the trunk every now and then :)

I'm glad to see I'm not the only 480 owner with a sub box larger than the space actually provided in the boot :)
