Is there anything that won't fit into this car?
Nicely done!Here is what I did to my 2017 HB Sport to make the rear trunk floor more solid………
View attachment 38488
2017 Civic Hatchback Sport (center exhaust)
Plywood (15/32“ thickness, 33 33/4” wide x 31 ¾” deep)
Covers entire spare tire recessed area
Provides solid rear deck floor (lower by 2.75”) and a 1.53 cubic foot subwoofer enclosure
Plywood attached with center bolt and four ¾” long sheet metal screws. Center bolt is M8 1.25 x 90MM long, Home Depot item 887480017687.
Location of sheet metal screws: to avoid issues with the underside of car, put the screws on the left and right side about 2 inches or less from the edge and put the screws more toward the center, avoiding about 10” from the top edge and 5” from the bottom edge (see photo).
If top-mounted, subwoofer driver can be 4 to 4 1/8 inches deep.
Spare tire will no longer fit in the spare recess – store (attached securely) in back area or the back seat floorboard. You can get a vinyl cover for the spare tire.
Stock fiberboard panel can be left in place - remove all 14 foam blocks – no additional modification needed.
