quote: Originally posted by Charlie Murphy: sucks, but you'd think trunk measurements would have been the first thing Unfortunately, having a box that <= the inner dimensions of your trunk is only part of it. Since the majority of trunks have openings that are only a fraction of the inner depth, I like to make a model out of cardboard first to make sure I'll be able to tilt the box in when it is finished.

When in doubt you have two options. Cut or kick. Cut the metal or kick that bish in.

well i finally got it in. i was goin to mash the bottom of my trunk opening to make it flat and allow the box to slide in, but i decided it wasn't worth the damage. so i went ahead and trimed down the box an inch and there it was (after a few drop kicks)
