PLANS!: 2 dc audio level 4 10s, rockford amp, XS power battery under the hood aswell as one in the rear, upgrade the big 3 (doing it 2mrow!), new runs of 0awg under the car, new CDT components upfront, as well as a pair of 3 inch drivers in each a pillar. sound good?

STEP 1: TWEETER PODS!

alright guys, heres my first task! i didnt document the start of this bit of the build, but here what ive got!

trip to halfords to get some supplies! (fibreglass tissue, resin, and hardener!) and then on with the days work! :) well, firstly i removed the panels from the doors, drilled out the hole for the tweeter, hot glued the flush mouth in, stretched t-shirt material and resined it! unfortunately, i didnt get pics of the first few steps, i wasnt anticipating doing one of these, as my system just wont compare to most of yours, but what the hell, im having fun! :D

all resined up!

MAJOR UPDATE! :D

story first, details in a min :) i was browsing ebay, hoping to stumble across a bargain, and boy did i find one! i found a certain sub, in fantastic condition, in a gorgeously made box (a bit tatty, but the box is superb!) :D 45s, angled port, correct dimensions, correct tuning (32 Hz) and bloody good materials used......... and the sub?

BOOM! Fi SSD 10! dual 4 ohms, 800watts rms! BEAST! :D now i know its no beat compared to some subs on here, but i just did a quick test, on about 200 watts rms, and i got roof, window, and DOOR FLEX!!! :D :D !!

heres a quick comparison pic to my old, fuel audio STA 10........ monster motor! :D

im chuffed, absolutely and completely chuffed........ oh, and the best part? I DIDNT PAY A PENNY FOR THE SUB OR BOX! i swapped for a set of bucket seats, that cost virtually nothing! JACKPOT!

now, what amp to buy, with the money ive saved! :D
