Pillar Pods....

Hopefully the glass adheres well enough.

Normally you should "swiss cheese" the oem panel (lotsa drill holes in it) so the resin can really grab the oem panel...hopefully it will work out for ya.

Looks good for a 1st/2nd attempt glass project.

They look sweet, What are you powering them with?

Crunch 900.4 supposedly ~115 watts rms x 4.....so each side will be 115 divided between a Kicker SSMB6 midbass in the door, and the pod up top. 3-way passive.

I did not try the swiss cheese method, but the resin seems to have stuck to the plastic panel pretty well. I did also make sure to resin it around the perimeter edge, if that helps any. Like you said "hopefully the glass adheres well enough." :D

Thanks guys, a 7 megapixel camera seems to hide all the imperfections, I went ahead and sprayed em with the stone paint to see what they would look like, but they will be getting bedliner or upholstered.
