should we assume from this bump that you have any project planned for the summer?

CSA0890

Agreed I hope we can see more of this. I am wanting to do something similar this summer. I started on the rear deck before it got too cold out but I still have some stuff to finish on it other than getting it painted.

i might have something in mind idk if i'm going to do it so we'll see. I still need to post pics of the rear pods thou

dthomp2366

you have pods in the rear deck or in the sides on the cabin?

EmperorJJ1

on the sides

c4w18

i'm jelly....i totally want to do some pods for the rear sides.

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

they are nice and sound good too BUT i think they were a lil harder space wise then the fronts

danielhubbard2001

Sub'd......... this is going to make an awesome summer project, going to do the doors in a smaller version probablyl go with 2 6 1/2 inch in the doors, and probably do 2 8's in the rear panels. Great job btw, love the blue kevlar!!!

planned project=fail... oh well


do it up man. but then your wall would cover them Lol if you seriously do the wall in the cobalt u should leave it in there for a lil while. i know how it is and i wouldnt expect u too keep it forever but gotsta roll with it for a lil while. oh and figured since i have the tweeter pods in there might as well post pics of the rears (don't give me **** about the grills)

dthomp2366

how does that sound in that location? I think i want the enclosure things that go on the back of the 6x9s for some more midbass before I swap out my sub.

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

pretty good to be honest. midbass is pretty surprising for being free air but its hertz so. oh and they looked way better without the grills but it is what it is

how much more lbs did the doors become?

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

due to the pods? mmm maybe 2 lb? but theres a sheet and a half of lux liner in each door (each sheet weight in at 10.8lb... and what id approximate at 10sqft of damp pro per door. probably another 4-5lb

Omnigear

iTrader: (4)

so 20lbs give or take >_<

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

sounds about right. idk it feels heavy and really hurts when i open the door all the way (to the almost 90 degree position) and the wind slams it into my shins at 2x the speed of light

dthomp2366

emp would you recommend spectrum or something like it that can be sprayed over the "foil" deadening? i want to get rid of some of the road noise and bring out my doors alot more without something drastic.

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

i wouldn't say id recommend spectrum over the foil deadening but ya you can do that. main problem with spectrum in the doors is window. u dont want to spray the tracks or anything like that. plus the foil deadener like damplifier is actually about 15% or so more effective then spectrum. so.

K so once u have the pod all done and speaker holes cut out... how do u mount the pod to the door panel itself??????? please help

EmperorJJ1

iTrader: (5)

mine are screwed into the metal door and not attached to the plastic at all. the pod is light for how big it is but its still heavy and the speakers arent light either so they really need more support then the panel alone can provide

the same guy that built my pods also did a 3 way set in a mini cooper with the es-07, es-03 and es-02 but those are attached to the plastic door panel
