ice, try and get all those little hairs covered in resin, you dont like sanding, so get em flat.

jigs are fine. jigs are fun. go for it. dont worry about the foil or tape. it will be on the back, noone will see that part. resin right over it. but dont put any glass on the backside of the lip you made. and the props can mount anywhere you need them to. as long as they dont get in the way of the speaker motor or the stretched material.

good so far man //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

honestly, glass was prolly not needed on the rear part. that fleece was pretty thick, but it cant hurt //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

i hope my components are worth the time i'm spending in door pods //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif i'm thinking i may make tweeter pods in the kick area. sound good? or else i'm thinking the dash

 

[iceteebone 5,000+ posts]

now i think i might mount my tweeter with my mid.

on the dash...you want your soundstage to be ear level

but i think it may sound better on axis rather then off axis

 

[Starky 10+ year member]

well all I know is that mine are on my dash and they sound **** good

i think one of my problems was that i didn't have the material stretched tight enough behind the wood mount, so i used some claps to hold the fleece tight. didn't have enough claps so i improvised and used jumper cables //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

then i measured to make sure the piece was in the center and hot glued it down.

ya ice, i would really recommend NOT putting tweets in your lower doors. tweets sound real good off axis up in the A pillar. if you put them in the doors with the mid, chances are that your leg will be blocking\absorbing a lot of the higher frequencies and it will be muddy as a result.

i would put the crossovers under the dash, and put the tweet in the A pillar.

what components do you have by the way?

i tried them out in my bad pod off the headunit and they seemed decent. for $110 can't go wrong

I would suggest placing the tweets near the kicks
