I'm inFInitely Baffled.

[req 5,000+ posts]

and here's the rear w/ the panels back on.

There are suppose to be two panel pieces that cover the two sides that still reveals the deadening, but i had to cover the holes that held them in place. I will find a way to have them stay on

james, screw those other panels. do yourself a favor and get a piece of wood (mdf will be fine - itl be all covered) and cut it to the size\shape of that whole area. mount the board there (sans suboofer) and trace hole from sub onto back side of said panel. do calculations, find centerpoint of said circle, and expand edge to the exterior diamater of said subwoofer. cut.

insert panel with said speaker installed in baffle, there should be a pretty counter sunk speaker there. cover said panel in vynl, alcantara, or choice of finishing material, and then mount via screws through the BACK side of the baffle to the front panel.

all done. no need for ugly plastic panels.

it looks like on left\right its quite a bit of an angle. you could use some planters foam to build up a nice shape and glass over it to cover up the deadening, or cut some wood to fill that space. im sure you can figure it out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

also - does the power wire cut across the car back there? why is it cutting up the back seat back there?

Too bad that that edead is gonna cause havoc on all the panels when it starts to peel.

Hopefully the eDead will hold its place. Most of the mat on the ceiling stayed on after about 3 yrs. After a coat of liquid, they should stay on much longer. Liquid deadener stays on very well. I'll just hope for the best.

Req: I'll look into making that panel. I'm leaning towards putting the panel back on, for it's much much easier, and imo doesn't look too bad. I may post a pic of it later to show how it looks.

The power wire cuts across like that because I didn't have the time yet to give it more slack. I use to just run from the driver side then through the center (where the baffle is) to where the rear batt is, which the passenger side of the trunk. Should be an easy fix.

Congrats on doing your door pods correctly and not trying to build off and attach to the cheap factory panels.

Get him one or a pair of these:

That would give an in car response flat down to like 1hz! If it was possible for me to go with a real IB setup in my car, I would be all over trying to do that with two of these.

lawl. a part? he was a little whiny ***** asking me like a million questions, every time he got done with a step i talked with him for like 3 hours explaining how to finish them, then he drove to my place and chilled for two weeks and i helped finish them.

those aeib15's look pretty neat. not sure how the response for car use would be, but they are secksy @ 130\each or 4\$400.

as far as teh amplificatoer - i no have a camrea as i am at work. ill have to take pictures later //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Thanks tonyguy. I'm glad you mentioned and took notice that it was a lot of work 'cause hell yes it was. but the outcome was more than I expected.

Always liked your work James. Good stuff. Makes me want to try IB, but I don't have either the time or money.
