that looks sweet good idea

im interested in doing my doors in fiberglass but i dont know enough about the process yet

n8 i think the fiberglass piece with the fan on it will go ontop the open amp replacing its factory plate

**actin bad like a kid at six flags**

how ru going 2 power the fan?

drill a tiny hole to attach it to the power ground and remote on the amp so the fan will turn on when the amp does the fan itself has a remote wire so thats nice

Never seen a fan with a remote wire. That fan appears to have a fluid bearing which will seize up eventually if not ran straight up and down as intended.

EDIT: The yellow wire on the fan (and most other 3-wire PC fans) is for PWM control, how it will function as a remote turn-on I cannot say.

I'm gonna hate
