zx10intn Posted March 4, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) next it was time to fab up some tweeter pods, and since at the time i wasnt too swift with fiberglass, i took the opportunity to try a new method and loved it, still use it to this day on new installs because its so cheap, easy and fast. ill step by step this part just in case anyone wants to know how this was done... take your tweeter trim ring, go to the hardware store and get some PVC end caps that are slightly larger than the diameter of the ring next, determine what angle you want your pod at and drill a hole at appx that angle into the pvc cap you will also need some steel nipples, usually sold in the lighting area where lamp cords, plugs etc are sold. they are threaded on the outside and hollow in the middle to allow a lamp cord to pass through. thread it into the hole you drilled into the pvc cap and secure the inside with the nuts provided with the steel nipple lkg find the spot on your a pillar you want to mount it to and drill a hole for the steel nipple to pass through. push it through the hole and secure it on the backside of the a-pillar with one of the nuts provided in the kit, now that its in and you have it where you want it, take it back off LOL and find some paint to match your a-pillar and give them a few coats after drying, place the tweeter into the cap, re-isntall onto the pillar with the tweeter wires passing through the steel nipple and re-install into the vehicle. if your tweeter is slightly too small for your cap wrap a layer or two of electical tape around its sides, just enough to make it a snug fit when you push it into the pod Edited March 4, 2012 by zx10intn Quote 1969 Chevy Chevelle 20/22" staggered Bonspeed Huntingtons wrapped in Nitto INVO's Mechman 250amp cs144 alt w/AVBM Kinetik 1800 main battery/Kinetik 2400 in the trunk Pioneer AVH-3200dvd Headunit (2) sets of Hybrid Audio Technologies Imagine components up front (2) DD 3512's d4 coils Sundown sax100.4 component amp Sundown saz-3000d subwoofer amp 5ft^3 box tuned to 34hz MY BUILD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
