Getting resistors ready to easily snap into place for the ambient tweets.

Now how does that work?
Rather than cutting a hole into the dash for a center channel, I am creating a solid stage using an ambient stage setup. Theses resistors will "quiet" down the ambient tweets to the point to witch they are are more of a fill for that 3-4.5 freq fill that is tough to achieve in sq.Quote:

Nice fitment:

The Lt Green on White is the Pos wire so this is where the resistor will go:

Woofer is in its happy place:

Oooo, looking wonderful.
Picked up a Tsunami optima batt topper for the power/ground upgrade. Zapco DC Ref 650.6 looks to fit in the wheel well nicely. I will float it for better cooling. Power and ground dbs are mounted and solid, bout ready to start hooking up wires. Just have a few more things to add:)

In for more! Such a sick build!
I could not have asked for a better fitment. Under the passenger seat:

Few pics of how I setup the woofer wiring for plug-and-play:

Too bad these are the PRE-Be Cool no. 7s or I would have a nice cute EQ in the dash. BUT these will work just fine:)
Sick sick build, inspiration.
Crossovers all wired in:

Slowly working in the power/Ground wiring:

Great chassis grounding point!!! I will be cleaning this up and getting a solid bolted in 0/1 awg ground cable in here tomorrow:

Plans to fleese a shell over this mess are in the future, BUT form follows function, so I am focusing on getting it hooked up for now:

Sneek peek of what is coming up soon:

Yeah these are going to fit VERY well and allow for some PERFECT aiming. If anyone owns a SN95 mustang the dash looks like it was cut to allow for an up firing midrange:)

Looks awesome so far...
I didn't have much time today but here is a couple pics of the enclosure that will replace the 460 soundboard
