reedal Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Slowwwwwly getting the door pods ready for some speakers. Wrapped in fleece Getting ready for resin Remembered gloves this time And ready to dry Took the picture in the shade, but moved them into the sunlight afterwards. Hopefully I'll have them finished by next weekend. Won't get anything done tomorrow, and the wife will be home soon so I doubt I will have anything more done today either. In other news, I bought some rubber stoppers to put under the feet of my amps to help absorb some vibration and raise them up a bit for better cooling from underneath. Things that need to get done: -Design and build a new enclosure -Design and build a new amp rack -Purchase door speakers -Run more wire and ground for rear battery -Find a place to mount VM-1 If anyone follows this, sorry it's slow and not the greatest, but time and money are tight, I do what I can when I can. 1 Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reedal Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 All dried up and ready for body filler and paint A little test fit. Has a little bit of a gap on the high side corner but I think once I actually mount it it'll be a snug fit. The drivers side 6.5 has the parking brake lever/pedal in the way though, any tips on bending it out of the way?

White Lightning Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Are you venting into the doors ??

reedal Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 No, just a sealed pod. I want to see how it sounds first, and if needed I'll vent into the door. It will be SoundQubed's pro audio mids, with their component level tweeters. Do you think the mid will be better off vented into the doors?

moredbs Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 (edited) i went through the same thing with my doors. don't forget to check and see if your glove box opens, mine wouldn't with the door closed. i never use it,but it just irked me. also mine sounded great sealed up, never tried to vent them,but i had different speakers.

reedal Posted May 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 Good call on the glove box. I'll have to check it. Won't change anything, but it'll be good to know. Did you have to bend your parking brake pedal out of the way? If so, how did you do it?

aculous Posted May 30, 2015 Report Share Posted May 30, 2015 I just ran into that glove box issue with mine. May have to put mine in the kicks. Lookin good! Lemme know if you need help with the enclosure design. If I have all the T/S parameters I can mess with it in bassboxpro. It takes FOREVER though so there is that..

I've been playing around with the design with Torres and WinISD, but it's hard to find a medium between the two since they give different results. At least for a slot port. I need to try and do an aero design Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
