I mounted my tweeters in the upper corner of the door panel. I hade to make a little room by indenting the sheet metal of the door. I'm running a set of Elemental Design's.

 

I looked at your cardomain page. . .did you just paint the stereo console/dash/cover thing, or did you recreate one from mdf?

 

It's a regular stereo kit I modified and then bondo'd over, sanded and painted.

 

My main problem with my project, after much reflection, was that I was trying to do a couple things, and they were the wrong things:

A) I was trying to fit 2 10s back there.
B) I was trying to be waaaay too fancy.
C) I was trying to fit 2 10s back there. That counts for double.

It was like trying to fit twenty pounds of manure in a ten pound bag. Every single thing I tried (and we're talking over 20 different mockups) would solve one problem, but create one or two more. It was an exercise in futility. If I knew then what I know now, I would have just bought a pair of 8s and been done with it. When/if I get back around to the project, that's precisely what I will do. Hell, there's enough room back there for four 8s, but definitely not enough to run 10s.

 

With your skills, I am suprised you haven't already done it. You could probably make a killing (read: $$$) once you get the mold made for it. I know amlost everyone here would probably want one from you.

Maybe an 8", with a bandpasss design, to maximize the bass from a small area?

Just thinking out loud..

 

I HAVE ALPINE DD DRIVES AND I HAVE THE TWEETS ON THE DASH REFLECTING OFF THE WINDSHEILD... PUT YOUR SUBS IN THE HATCH AREA AND HIT THE BACK BUMPER FOR BETTER RESPONCE...

 

Freak, it would be nice. I would have to take apart my entire car do do such a project. A couple of the local rotary heads are finishing up their cars around here and want to do some systems, so I might have a chance. I'm just not going to get anyones hopes up about a box that might not happen.

 

I just wish I could find a local company to make copies of the fiberglass enclosures I have.
I'm sure they would sell like hotcakes, hehe.

 

Max, do you have any pics of those boxes outside of the car? It would help in designing some new ones.

 

thats really slick man but it would suck when you have to switch a light bulb!
