door handle was chewed up by my dog.......i gotta get a new one at the caddy dealer next week. Were gonna dye it grey to match the suede.

here is todays work. Back to the crossover rack. Most of this will never be seen but its no excuse not to make it strong and have the wires nice and clean...

again, this is made of 2x3's mainly because it also holds up a big Nitrogen bottle (for the air system)

[meade916]

bottom glassed in as well.........i would say its pretty solid now

This is how i am turning 4ga mids and high wire into speaker wire for the doors (i know its not necessary but its a long run to the back by the amps and it looks cleaner back there then 50 16ga speaker wires jammed into the T15k terminals )

a couple shots of the door again to end the evenings pics

worked on the driver door today.......everything is X2 in this truck, always gotta be a right and a left side to everything and since its so much damn work, i feel i can post pics of the other side, even though its exactly like the other side

i also managed to get the wiring harness on the panel. Wires cut to length, tweeter wires soldered and heat shrunk. Mid wires go directly into the speaker terminals so no need to solder. Anyway the back of the panel isnt as clean as the front.......its all business back there LOL.

a close up to show the texture of the material.

Now can you see the beauty in the Molex Plugs Soon, i will plug it in and call it done......hassle free

just waiting on the armrests and window button housing.....being dyed to match the graphite grey inserts. Probably next week when i get back from Florida

[meade916]

foam baffles for each 6.5 and even the 10 on the way....should keep them safe from the elements and most importantly from each-other

OK i spent some time during the week running crossover wires from the distribution blocks. Today, i got the armrests back from being dyed to match the suede. I layed 2 layers of Hushmat before i got started. The Passenger door, i am happy to say, is 100% done Here is just some of the weeks "labor".

OH ya, did i mention the seats are out for Leather and Suede? This is the last time you will see them tan. Slowly but surely all the tan and brown inside the hoopty will be gone

[meade916]

that is only HALF of the wiring, from the distribution to the inputs. I still have all the outputs to wire up....

[meade916]

time for some Hush Mat

Ok i used foam inserts to keep the 10's and 6.5's from mixing......the 6.5 foam pads were a pain in the ass and were not lettin me sink the speakers in as deep as i wanted so i took them out. The 10" pod is still there and i think thats all ill really need anyway...

[meade916]

Ok it looks like the same thing but just like everything else, i MUST post pics of both sides.....so much work i just cant NOT show it

DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOOR PANELS DONE! :D Still gotta hook the wires up to the xovers. That will be this weekend.

Remember, disregard any Tan or Brown in the vehicle......the interior is gettin flipped and will match the panels...
