[QUOTE="nineball, post: 6368033, member: 585829"] free time is at a premium but once i get started i totally lose track of time. this is as much as i can get done today, tomorrow i will work on the mounting system. i am thinking some form of a small plate that i can connect between the inner seat belt mounting bolt and then a bolt through the middle brace. i won't know for sure until the enclosure is fully cured and i can stick it back in the car. on to the pics... first up was to clean up the flush mount holes in the front panel. covered the speaker in a few layers of tape to protect and help simulate the vinyl thickness [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4694.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4695.jpg[/IMG] next i filled the mount with some duraglass around the edges and then set the woofer in place. i let it go just a bit beyond the green stage and then removed them. i was left with this. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4696.jpg[/IMG] while it still is not perfect it is much better than it was and should look perfect once the vinyl is on. time to start laying glass. this is in the car with 2 layers down. the green areas you see are the floral foam that i used to give me a better surface to lay the glass on. btw, if you ever need this stuff don't go to walmart like i did. i thought i would need more so while out supply hunting this morning i stopped at pat cataan's craft store. got the exact same thing, only with 4 blocks not 3, for $0.30 cheaper. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4699.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4700.jpg[/IMG] i let that cure and then removed it from the car for easier access while working (back and knees are gonna hurt tomorrow!). this is what the bottom looks like after removing the tape/foil/foam. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4704.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4705.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4706.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4707.jpg[/IMG] you can see here that even with 2 layers it still would let light through. this has nothing to do with the build but i smiled. [IMG]http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a357/nineballots/911%20audio/100_4703.jpg[/IMG] it now has 6 layers of mat on the inside and i will let it fully cure overnight. more updates as they come...
