For the flush mount, just trace your spare tire cover onto the wood. It will fit the groove perfect then. Other than that everything is pretty much how SEC-Z showed you. Just make sure to apply several coates of fiberglass to make it strong when you remove it. Five would be a good solid enclosure. Scuff it with sand paper between coates, so the new glass has something to stick to.

You can either scuff inbetween layers, or for a stronger bond (and the correct method) would be to add next layer of glass when the previous layer is almost dry but still tacky. This saves ALOT of sanding and creates a better bond between layers. Also, the smoother your lay it, the less sanding! ALWAYS take your time laying out the glass, because sanding is the DEVIL!!!!!

tape down the area then use aluminum foil then some pam cooking spray over the area this should keep your box from sticking and you should be able to pull it right out.
