Those look great! How do they mount to the door panels? Looks like you might have watched some Car Audio Fabrication videos. They made some similar ones lol

I actually tried to get Mark to sell me a set years ago before making my own. They're held in with threaded inserts from the rear.

It's just wood and body filler. Both are very shape-able

Looks great. Looks like something you'd get from an audio/stereo shop.

Just so happen to be working on my own pods right now, installing a total of ten 6.5s... 2 subwoofers for midbass in front doors along with two loudspeakers. Two components in the rear doors and kick panels plus two more loudspeakers that I'm not set on a location yet.

OP I'm jealous of yours, they look sweet and you made em yourself. DIY usually comes out better but I've been too busy lately

Yea.. I can totally relate, it's been close to 10 years since I've had a system and I have to admit I'm overwhelmed with the selection of products now. Quality has gone up and price has gone down (with the new companies anyway). I have never changed my mind so many times lol, that's definitely making things take longer. Constantly wiring up the amps and speakers only to move it all around a few days later. Back in the day I'd just get two 12s, Wal-Mart deck and maybe a set of components for the front doors. Would take a half a day and that was it, all I could afford too!! Now I'm putting 6 inch subs in my doors that are rated like 12s & 15s in high school

But man that dash is nice! That's well beyond my fabrication skills. Would you be interested in making me one for a fee of your choice?? I've got a spare I can send you and not in a rush. I'm actually installing a 7 inch right now but I'd like to go bigger. Not as big as yours tho, don't wanna lose that AC vent in south Louisiana! Most I'd be willing to do is relocate the AC controls

If you're not interested no hard feelings but I would be willing to pay, I really like how it's all flat and the little groove is gone
