I plan on using about 6-8 bolts and large washers around the perimeter per door to secure them to the doors.

Nice progress so far

Thanks alaskanzx5 I might just do that
I can recone a sub myself. About a year ago I took 2 12" power acoustic mofos and made one sub. I took the magnet and the motor off of one and j b welded it to the other motor and magnet. I had to wind my own voice coil so it would work. After I was done hooked up to 2 boss 5000w amps. And shattered my back and all my side windows

came to this thread to recommend soundqubed and ct sounds. OP goes with soundstream.

oh lawd.

Alright so progress has been made!!! Today I was able to trim up all of the edges on the panels to where they fit back in the doors. I went ahead and set up the mounting points and set the bolts in place where they will go and glassed them in. Then it was sanding time. I got both pods pretty smooth and then started on the filler. I have one layer down and will be doing one or two more. My door panels are textured so I'm not sure if I'm going to try and copy that texture or just make them completely smooth.

Here is where I made the cuts on my doors.

I put some fiberglass on the inside seam just to reinforce the edges. I also did a layer over the entire pod of which I forgot to take a pic of.
