[QUOTE="req, post: 2785492, member: 555713"] so you are trying to fit the mid and the tweet in there. interesting idea, it should work out. big thing though, when you mount the rings, make sure they are level with the edge (or maybe a little bit further out) so that the vynl wont be too hard to wrap on there. if you have a router, round the edges on the rings, will look a ton better. to stick it to the glass, some thin 3m tape should work fine. i dont think it should be too heavy, that stuff is real strong.but it might add to the 'depth' and make the pod not fit right. anyway. lookin cool. it looks like it could end up looking real good. tip for the finishing part. when you wrap and are all done and ready, put the pod in after you wrap and glass the front and are done sanding. then get some kittyhair bodyfiller, and tape the A pillar again (as SMOOTH as you can possibly make the tape) then put the pod in the hole (maybe with the sticky tape on the back too) and then take the kittyhair and push it in the edges between the pillar and the enclosure. this will give you perfect fitment of the pod because it can warp as you build it and change size a little. then sand off the extra filler and make it nice and smooth, and wrap in the vynl. should look real nice.
