K2P Mid in the front door (2.8'' Fit w/ a 1.5'' Spacer :thumbup: )

TN52 Tweeter in the Stock Sail:

I didnt take any pics of the back speakers since they are black and boring and didnt show up in the pictures.

I still have to work with the vinyl since some of it is coming unglued. I also need to clean up some of the wires, but it is pretty much done.

So what does everyone think?

Nice. How long did it take to install?

Overall it looks really nice, except where you can see behind the amp, and the wires on the amp on the left side. Other than that, pretty **** nice install.

nice install, how long did it take Fabrication and install? and the budget

Thecontender - I love the Focals, midbass is AMAZING.

Xtra - I didnt build the box I had a guy I know with the same car as me build it. Install of everything took a few long days with LOTS of wire...

crx4luke - I was originally planning on running the speakers of a 4150 as opposed to the 4050, so when I had it all built it was built with the other amp in mind. The 4150 is slightly larger then the 1500 so it WOULD have filled up the whole opening. I ended up finding a good deal on the 4050 so I just went with that, i may paint the wood back there black and put some sort of wrap over all the wires so it blends more.

80INCHES & Alpineinstaller - on the budget note, car audio forums are GREAT. Retail for everything is somewhere in the $4-5000ish range. Including sound deadening, wire, everything I paid slightly over $2000 for it all. Most of it was BNIB too. It took a few months of just searching and waiting for the right deals to come along. Overall I think I ended up getting a good system for the money.
