It dont take forever.... Fibreglass ones do....

MDF ones are simple as you only need to do so much cutting and then glue together.

You got a design?

mdf are easy to build. ive made mine within the space of a couple of days (only a few hours per day). in that time i have also managed to completely coat it in 1/2" thick foam and will soon be onto the vinyl retrim. with a bit of look it'll come out ok. then its onto the dash tv build :/

Hardest part i found was making the floating floor / top part, so it went round with very little gaps round the side, you have to make ti too big and then trim it down.
