[QUOTE="CadillacMatt, post: 5406586, member: 595884"] What if I made sort of a "wall" instead of a full on enclosure? What I mean is, take a piece of MDF and shape it to the contour of the left side kick panel (my car has carpet there where some other cars already have plastic kicks). Once I have the "wall" made, I would build the baffle off of the "wall", position it and secure it with dowels, and put fleece/resin over it just like all the other methods. Then I could go back and cut out the backside of the wall to allow the speakers to come through and provide an open airspace between the speakers and the back of the wall. So in essence the backside of the wall, including the A-pillar space a would be the "enclosure", but it wouldn't be sealed up like glassing it to the opening of the A-pillar would be... would this be a waste of time?
