Thanks man. I don't really post a lot......Working on the install today though. Trying to get the kicks up and running.
I'm waiting for you to finish up your ride so I can get some ideas.

well, i'm away for the holiday, so I hope to get started on the trunk this next week. I have everything drawn out for the final design, so i am excited to get things going there...

one thing i found is that if you have too much stuff it becomes hard to put everything all in...for the trunk i have one too many amps to fit with both 12's, so I am actually going to have to stack two of them (one will be essentially hidden)...

I need to order stuff for the fiberglass and vinyl, so that will be coming later than i hoped.

I really didn't expect all this to take so long, but as i begin different parts of the install, things keep changing and I have to adjust. I am going to put the tweets in the pillars now, instead of the kicks as I feel that with both the tweet and mid in the kick would be stuffing too much into the small kicks...

post up pics of your new revised install so i can watch... see what ideas I can get from you!!

Funny you should ask......I had a problem with it....I followed most people's advice and drilled holes in the factory kick panels but it still didn't work that well so I went ahead and used bondo to seal it to the panel around where the fiberglass meets the panel. Tomorrow I'm going to put resin on the back of the panel hoping the resin sinks into the holes I drilled. If that doesn't work.......I'm not sure.
