Forevrbumpn Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 Iam just curious, why did you spend the extra couple $$ on the shielded speakers, over just getting standard ones? Going to pop them in a home set up later? Ive done so many fiberglassed doors, but one thing I found out... KEEP THE TOP portion of the door intact, and resin down ward... Here was my attempt at 6- 6x9s per door in a Lincoln Navigator 24 6x9s, with 2200w/rms of fosgate power to them, this was customers choice, not ours, plus he wanted 4 tweeters per front door, when the 6x9s were 4 way... But anyways, my point is its easy to do doors when you keep the top part on, and work down ward That is before vinyling ofcourse, I dont have final pics, because I got jacked for money there at the shop, and quit before the final pics were I have a ritual called "terminator". I crouch in the shower in the "naked terminator" pose. With eyes closed I crouch for a minute and visualize either Arnie or the guy from the 2nd movie. I then start to hum the T2 theme. Slowly I rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me get through my day. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It sorta ruins the fantasy.

SPLGEO Posted April 10, 2007 Author Report Posted April 10, 2007 just did a test fit,, theres no way possible for me to have the the sub up front unless i did it like before, i think i'll just use both 8's in the rear, and the tweeter and mid in the door.

roscoe1129 Posted April 10, 2007 Report Posted April 10, 2007 maybe you could put your 8's in the kicks????

SPLGEO Posted April 10, 2007 Author Report Posted April 10, 2007 fuse box is behind one, and its a stick shift very little room i looked at it, too iffy. it would be really close to my clutch foot. i would hate to put my foot through a subwoofer I plan to use the mid range in the door, alot with the memphis tweeter i have in the kick, and use a fiberglass box in the rear for an 8". I was given an yahama 5.1 amp/ processor yesterday, so i need to work on an HT setup too..... also i know i need to do some engine work, alittle smoke, and a little oil buring. 1995 Geo Prism .

sean 371 Posted April 11, 2007 Report Posted April 11, 2007 Tweeter in the kick?? Bad idea. Mount it much higher up. For one thing, you can't have any obstructions (like a leg) between a tweeter and the ear, or it will sound verry muffled. Mount the tweet in the A pillar FTW A couple links to some box builds: Tahoe Box 1, Tahoe Box 2, Nissan Titan, VW GTI, Mini-Bump, Hummer H2, Ford F-150 My own car builds (current setup --- under construction): Overall Thread, Kickpods, Dash, Back Doors Subwoofer Wall

sean 371 Posted April 12, 2007 Report Posted April 12, 2007 Maybe so, if you never listen to music with yourself in the car. You'll find yourself angling your legs in an odd way so you won't block the tweet.
