looking for ideas on how the put 6 1/2's in the kick panel areas. i dont want to cut into the doors or metal there. thinking about a small enclosure in the shape of the kick panel maybe fiberglassed and covered with leather. any one with pics?

I'm also thinking of putting 2 sets (4) of 6-1/2 mids and 2 sets (4) of 1-3/4 tweeters in mine. I've never had a sdhortbox before so I'm not sure where to put them to give me the best sound quality. Any ideas???

from what i seen they block the E-Bake to much and the tweeter should be mounted up high not down low in the kick panel not to mention the price $200 vs. $90

I like it also any pictures on the build process? What is it constructed from, wood and glass then paint. How did you get the special effect in the center. They are COOL.

thanks guys for all your links. i like the pods and like that they are angled for the best imaging.

like the lmc's because they look sort of factory looking and come with speakers but not sure which i want.

if i had the skills i would love to do what justpball did.....too bad they dont sell stuff like that. lol
