ok i got all my custom parcel shelf happnin so that is all good. BUT. i cant decide on how to mount my front speakers,ok these are the ideas that i have had so far and the reasons i have decided no.
#1 cut out door skins - no because sl/e coupe door trims are hard to find and i dont want to cut mine up.
#2 make pods for doors - no because they will get in the way.
#3 put them in the kick panel - no because the hole that is in the panel already is not deep enough and they will earth out.
#4 put em in the top part of the kick panels - no because i will have to cut holes in the factory tin work which i dont want to do.
#5 dont put em in at all - no cos the stereo sounds crap without them.
PLEASE HELP WITH ANY SUGGESTIONS i am stumped
thanks

maybe under the dash or seats or somewhere? i got 6 8 inch 250 watt subs in the car itself. 2 under both front seats, 2 in the doors on pods and the back doors too and i got 6x9s in the back parcel shelf.

just put them in the door. If u do decide to put them in the doors, its best to use pods and cut the hole behind them. It will give better sound and they mighnt fit without pods becuase the window mightnt allow u to put them ina ll the way.
