    Not going to mount the speakers until after the seats go back in to avoid any accidental damage. I also wanted to ask anybody who might be looking at this what your opinion is on where the Tweeter should go, in this last picture I marked the three places that would be the easiest to install with...

    Finally, made some real progress. The doors are completely wrapped up, for now. Unfortunately I will have to pull the door panels back off in a couple weeks to put new mirrors on the truck, and change the lightbulbs, but I needed to make sure that the door panels would fit over the CCF, and that...

    Thanks man, appreciate the compliment. That's tight that your kids are into audio. I was thinking about trying to get my son involved in this build wasn't sure at first but, i actually might give it a shot now Sent from my SM-S737TL using Tapatalk

    Was able to get a little bit of time today and got some gaskets on the access panels I made. I know it's a baby step but it's better than nothing. the other access panels I will probably have to silicone unfortunately because the shape is just too odd, and even though the panel's I made cover...

    Well I didn't get as much done as I wanted to today, but I did get all the access hole covers fabricated and sealed with deadener on both sides. also I took the access panel under the door latches off cleaned them up, and put a layer of deadener on the back. was going to do the front and back...

    Driver door is deadened, and that's it for me tonight. first thing tomorrow I will be making panels with quarter inch Birch and a layer of deadener on each side with CCF gaskets to seal off all the access holes, and hopefully buttoning up everything else on the front doors. Sent from my...

    Thanks man I will definitely keep posting until it's done. I feel your pain, I took about a 10-year break and this is my first System since, but I did a big build for a friend which is what pulled me back in. now I don't know how I ever lived without it. Sent from my SM-S737TL using Tapatalk

    Also I do agree about the door pods looking good but it was a ton of work would have been way way easier with PVC like you did it, if I could have got some 8 in fairly easy it would have been so much better. For any future builds that will definitely be on my order before I start list Sent from...

    Just finished with the passenger door deadener about to start on the driver. good call on the accordion boot and vent under the door latch, i didn't even think about either. Looking at it now my truck doesn't have a vent, just the plastic access panel, but I will deaden and seal it with some C...

    Thanks man I appreciate it. And I know you're 100% right, I started doing this because I enjoyed it not for any other reason, and that is what has got me this far and will get this build done. But knowing that there are people out there to share it with makes it so much better. Sent from my...

    Not a whole lot done, but I am starting now and have the rest of the weekend so hopefully I will have some more pics by Sunday night. since last time I got the speaker adapters completely finished, and a start on the deadener. I didn't want to put too much effort into the adapters because they...

    Man I couldn't agree more, Facebook is totally not my thing. I'm half computer illiterate anyways, actually I take that back I'm totally computer illiterate. like I've said before posting on this form is stretching my computer skills, and I'm doing it for my phone, I don't even own a computer...

    Thanks man I really appreciate it. it's been getting harder to find motivation here lately with no real Enthusiast around to share it with. pretty much the people on this form is all I got when it comes to audio, so it definitely means a lot. Sent from my SM-S737TL using Tapatalk
