new trunk floor

[xfactortype1]

what you guys think

[cvc7chris]

Custom..

mine was broken in Half so my Subwoofer was Always Crooked

[xfactortype1]

yup 10 buck for plywood from lowes and like 5.00 dollars for handle and hinges. the rest i cut and traced.

[champagneaccord]

Good job, i don't have one

[MikeW]

Not diggin the handle...

How thick is that plywood? How much thicker than the factory floor-piece is it?

Ive contemplated doing this myself. Not that mine is falling apart, but that "stuff" under there is really good at aging and soaking up water..need something a little stronger, thicker and sturdier.

I thought about doing this too. Mine got all warped and crappy from moisture damage, so I deleted it.

If I make my own, though, I think I will use acrylic or some other water-proof material, instead of wood or the like.

Also, instead of a handle, I would just cut out a little handle-shaped hole instead, to grab it with, that way you don't have to worry about the handle sticking up; plus it doesn't look oem.

But kudos to you on making one, man! I need one too. I'm sick of putting stuff in my saggy floorless trunk.

[MikeW]

Does it have to have a hinge??

I mean..i still wanna be able to get to my spare, just in case, but i would think with a "hand-hole" cut out, you wouldnt need the hinge....

Looks pretty good. I redid my floor with fiber board stuff like OEM uses but put 3 hinges and then a little aluminum bar underneath to help support my sub. I think you will like the hole idea that others said because it will let you put more stuff in the trunk without the handle sticking up. The plywood should be a little stronger than stock also.

[ChillPhatCat]

Not bad for a replacement... I agree that handle will get in the way though.

Personally, I pulled my warped crappy piece out along with the spare and jack... I got AAA and there's no way I'd be able to get those wheels off without some good tools the way they rust to the hubs... also saves a good 40 lbs and significantly increases the trunk space.

I payed 55 dollars for a brand new fiber board floor. I still cant find oem carpet to fit the back of the seat and trunk

[xfactortype1]

why?

why you pay 55 dollars. i paid like 10 bucks for the wood and simply traced the shape onto the plywood and cut with a jigsaw. took me like 10 minutes to do. i then found some left over berber carpet in my basement and did the same for my rug.

goodluck in looking though i guess.


plus the nice thing about using thicker plywood is that you can screw a amplifier to it for your stereo, which is what i did.

oh and i used 5/8 plywood

I've had a plywood floor with trap door for years... Between the air suspension, and the stereo, the stock floor wouldnt have cut it...

[kouzie]

that is something I might look into..

I reused the stock hinges. And so far it has held my sub well.
