The smell of the coils smells like a bunch of old burned crack mixed with cow droppings.

And you know that smell why? Looking good so far bro.

Having to drill a 4 new holes in my bus bars. I never knew how hard that stuff was I swear man.

Got the bus bars in today. F me I almost broke my chin in the process. I was drilling in them and the bit caught and rotated the bus bar around and clocked me right in the middle of my shin twice. I can't explain how much it hurt. It's like taking a dumbbell and hitting yourself in the shin with it. These are electrical taped because this is a daily driver and these bus bars have a lot of copper to be a good accidental grounding point. Anyways, here's the pics. Notice how the drill bit is eaten up.

Not really sure to tell you the truth. If I had to make some I'd just say a ground pounder but I just am building something I like, not sure what you call it //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Got all my wires connected for the power/ground. Had to drill out the ring terminals because the bolts were too big for the whole on them.

Nice components //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Everything is starting to come together!

I used this morning to take apart my pillars and reposition the tweeters. Still firing at opposite headrest, but wires are all gone and they look pretty good. EQ is going to stay (at least for now), final decision. So it's now secured, too.

Subwoofer decision has been made, but it's Top Secret.

Maybe some rear fill will be going in, but that should be it as far as speakers.

No to both of those. There will be a panel that covers the amplifiers and runs all the way back to the rear hatch where the enclosure will sit.

If I decide to get anymore subs, a wall may be in order.
