Building kickpanel speakers - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok, I followed the instruction on here to build a set of kickpanel speaker sets. I am using fiberglass resin, panel board, etc. I gotta tell you, this is WAY COOL!
I've never done something like this but am finding it really easy. I bought a $4.99 glue gun at HF and it made life sooo easy. I used an old t-shirt to set the intitial form, then layed my first coat of resin on the drivers side enclosure.
It will look excellent and I highly recommend this project to all.

But where are the pics?

Coming , I promise

I've thought about building some, but I'm too lazy. Progress pics!

Do you have to move your e-brake and dimmer switch?

No, I situated the speaker just below path of ebrake. the dimmer switch is an issue. I'll post a pic of the driver's side in place with first coat of resin tonight so you'll get an idea. This is super easy to do.
