[QUOTE="Original wis, post: 8803210, member: 685344"] Next I fabricated or tried to fabricate a place where I could put the tweeters in the plastic panel that covers the mirror electronics. I made a few mistakes and this took me a while to figure out as well. I cut a hole in the panel using a hole saw then inserted the tweeters casing into the hole. I used glue to stick everything together. Before I put the tweeter in I sanded everything down to make it as even as possible and then coated the entire piece with 12 coats of Krylon spray paint. [ATTACH]41221[/ATTACH] As you can see it didn't come out as smooth as I intended. I'm still not quite sure why to be honest. I also removed the rear deck and reupholstered it in black so that it would match the new interior. [ATTACH]41222[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]41223[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]41224[/ATTACH] I used gorilla glue heavy duty spray adhesive and it worked okay for the most part. There's a few places where I had to use the roller multiple times to get it to stay set and there's a couple places that I missed apparently. Overall for my first time I don't think it looks too bad.
