[QUOTE="Octave, post: 8186947, member: 633707"] Once the pillars were done the doors were the next subject of attention. The doors stock house the typical Ford 5x7 but that meant there would be room for a set of Illusion Audio Carbon C8 midbass. [URL="http://s1319.photobucket.com/user/octaveaudio1/media/Ford/Dustin%20Taurus/13_zpse4a22649.jpg.html"][IMG]http://i1319.photobucket.com/albums/t676/octaveaudio1/Ford/Dustin%20Taurus/13_zpse4a22649.jpg[/IMG][/URL] A staple at Octave is to use plastic for the mounting rings to ensure against moister damage. Wood rings are substandard because no matter how you treat them moister will eat at them but plastics never will have that problem.

There wasn't room to run wire through it but I got lucky. There was one wire that was not used so it was removed and heat shrunk for protection. Once removed it cleared a path for the speaker wire to be ran.
