I am no interior guy, well I do basic glass work & cf work.. anyways.. but the adhesive I have used and the shop that did the suede work in my car "www.theinteriorshop.com" use wellwood by dap.. think that is how you spell it. Looks like green or yellow snot and once it sets up.. dear god it holds super tight. I HATE having to pull the stuff back apart after it is used, especially if it sets up for a few days.
A few days ago I saw a can for automotive use of a 3m panel glue that is heat resistant. never tried it but hey.. it is 3m and they generally make good stuff.

Yup, we use the same shit... with a paint spray gun on our compressor. It SUCKS *** getting it on your hands...

?? Lost me, I did not say anything like that... the whole section of the door panel was cutout and the pod is 100% glassed in / shaped. The mid is attached to the glass pod which was attached to the door panel which is attached to the door itself. Very solid mount. The aluminum ring around the mid to cover the screws was cnc'ed out for a perfect fit. Did not glass over the oem door panel at all, that is to quick and dirty haha.

Okay, this answers my question.

Good work in not making it ridiculously over the top. Everything flows nicely.

nice man. Where did you buy the suede from?

Suede was done at http://www.theinteriorshop.com so not sure were he got it. It was very very nice stuff.

I do glass work usually myself, did the sub pods and painted them. This week though I had to finish the back in of a widebody g35 in time for HIN LA, glassed single eclipse 7200 sub, with 3 amps. I had no time to finish mine so I paid the interiorshop to do the panels. After he told me he would do them wrapped for $350 for the pair, I was like HAVE AT IT *LOL* Hell I would have been into it $150 in materials alone hahaha. Later this month I will be glassing in a tub were the back seat was "just two panels there to cover the ugly right now"

And yeah.. oh yeah the glue sucks to get on your hands. especially around your fingernails. Have to dig it out with a **** pick. Nasty stuff.
