98' Ford Escort Zx2 - Beginning of a Rebuild


Recommended Posts

Posted

They did the same to my Escort. I'm lucky they are held in place with screws and one clip. I wouldn't be able to put pods on them in my car :(. That was my first choice. It looks good man keep it up.

thanks a lot :) I think with some putty epoxy should help with relocating those damn pegs too.

Some more progress. I need speaker wire still so they aren't wired up. I put them in the door and fastened them in with a few screws. Excuse the dirty car :P

only thing i dont like is how far out they stick and the angle. I know you had to do what you had to do but they seem to stick out real far.

yeaaaaaa they do, I made sure not to make the same mistake on the drive side. I'm still learning one step at a time so I decided to fiberglass an insert instead of entire door. Not at that level yet, but hopefully I will when I'm done with this build.

I have more stuff done, but I haven't had the chance to install it because school has me very busy and the precipitation isn't letting up

thanks for looking at my build, I almost forgot that I had a build log :P

EDIT: Not in a JP kind of way.

I thought I was going to die from all the jizz filling my ears.

My girlfriend got me the PAC-LC1 for Christmas and I just go around to installing it. the sundown remote gain knob was freaking out and sending the amp weird signals and it scared me every time I adjusted the gain with the knob

I have the drive pod painted and all, I just haven't had the time to install it with this week being so busy. I'll have it installed hopefully during spring break
