Will be installed a little later. I stuffed a little bit of poly fill to help keep vibration down. Keep in mind that I am by no means an expert and wrapping fabric!!! I know there is a bit of overlay behind the speaker.

Second battery added checking charging.

Because there are two amps and fans, I decided to run a relay coming off the remote output of the MS8.

I actually switched the tweeter mounting brackets. The left went to the right and right went to the left. This allowed the tweeters to be aimed just a tad of axis.

Today was a simple sub and amp integration into the factory system of a VW R32.

Long story short, the customer contacted me about a year ago to correct what other shops had done. After fixing those issues the customer constantly changed either amps or speakers every month or so. :laugh:


So this is a complete gut and rebuild. Everything is being taken out and re ran or replaced.

The amps will both be on a amp rack above the spare tire. The sub will now be centered in the trunk instead of to the side. Let's begin

Tear down

If you are talking about how the car came to me, you are correct it was shot work. If you are talking about my rebuild, I am not sure why you say that. As I said first time doing the a pillar tweeter pods. The sagging can be corrected.

New speakers installed
http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...y/IMG_0020.jpg

Because the door panels have been taken off so many times; I replaced all the panel pins.

Thanks for this post dude, I will look forward to this offer, this is great.

Test fitted the amp rack in the trunk. Perfect fit!

Now to start the false floor tomorrow and sub box.

http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...y/IMG_0048.jpg

So today I got a lot done, most of the car is back together. Did get to test the woofers and sub however ran into a few problems including the sub box will not fit because of a seat belt in the way. So I will have to change the location to the left of the trunk and make a new beauty panel.

Working on the sub box.
