New door pods!

Well I thought I would add some more imaging to the system. Just some 1/4" masonite as the base and 1/2"mdf ring for the speaker. A little felt and fiberglass!
Something I think alot of 1st Gen guys might want to consider to add some more brightness to their stereo's. Oh, I install 51/4" Alpine 130a coaxails in the pods.


Tell me what you think!
More on the whole system on my cardomain page.

Thanks for all the replys. I picked these up from a forum member so I could do the work without fing up the originals. The difference is in the panel inlay at the top. SE's have a velvet type of inlay, GSL's have a ribbed as in the pics. Both materials however are in my factory GSL-SE seats. I kinda like the looks of the ribbed panels anyway.
Max7, looking foward to hooking up at Rotofest. Are you coming camping?
