[Roverboy]

heya im trying to do this at the moment a few questions did you use the original rear card for template or did ya make one from scratch also how did ya stop the doorcard fouling on the seatbelts

thanks

[SRlew]

yer i'v got mine there, i had harnesses to put in any way which is a good thing cause the standard seatbelt was rubbing on the speaker.

[Timmy]

I manged to get my 6*9 in with out it rubbing on my sealt belt, will get image tomorrow . Run them at an angle and move them quite close to the front of the 1/4, should be fine

[Timmy]

Looks good Timmy, I'd be apprehensive about taking people in the back and breaking the speakers and treading on the amp though (although I'm 6'4", have the seat all the way back and can only have the tiniest of people behind me!)

[Timmy]

yeah you have a point about the amp but i have the seat all the way back and you can bealy see it also is most coverd by a matt as well been there for a while no problems , people just getting Zapped by the cones moving LOL

Fiberglass is all well and good ,BUT once you get serious bass going though your speakers all that will happen is the Fiberglass will just crack Cheers , Dave :thumb:
