[QUOTE="raytard, post: 5344708, member: 605178"] like i said, this was kind of a 4 inch coax isnt going to cut it with 1200watts of bass so i need something, anything, so why not learn to glass pods(my dad is a marine mechanic, i used to be his assistant as like my first job when i was 13/14, so i learned how to glass boat hulls and stuff, never really did speaker pods) these pods are way overbuilt...the front ones hold my 200lb 6 foot 1 body standing on them, the design needs refining, which is why im here for some advice. kicks arent happening, theres not much room as it is, i go to school in oswego and the bottom part of my car is routinely filled with snow, drunk girls love to just jump in my car and break stuff, and im not going for competition status sq sail panel tweeters firing across, thats def happening, i realized how wrong mine was kinda after the fact, v2 is def getting that, a-pillars are prob a bit too much work those 8's are not taking the 300rms my amp would throw out bridged, im sure that using front l/r for the 6.5's (~125 watts rmsx2) and the rear l/r for midbass(100rmsx2) would be fine, but then i still have another amp, i dont want to push the speakers, i trale 6-13 hours to school depending on traffic and its going full blast, they need to last. back doors are out, they got kicked too much, just gonna sell em to a friend sans destroyed grills and throw away the pods, redoing something back there would have to be something more creative, that design was waaaay too in the way [IMG]http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa316/raytard6969/podv2.jpg[/IMG] red line is new outline of how big the pod will be (part on bottom gives me access to 2 stock mounting holes) yellow is placement...i guess see how stuff goes together as to where crosovers go, right now theyre basically screwed to the inside of the door, where it says"x-over?", the ss ones are much nicer, may want to display em my plan to fit the 8 and 6...it should work, theres a lot of clearance in this car as you can see fron the pic where the door is closed up above. door to seat is like 5 inches, i should be fine on depth/enclosure volume. it would be 2 separate chambers. any suggestion as to aiming of the 6.5? just straight out? something like i have now just angled up more?
