Client came by today with a monster set of DLS MS6A Component speakers he wanted to put in his Accord. After palying around with placement, it was obvious these badboys weren't going to fit normally. Custom Pods it was!!!!
Jason had an extra set of speaker grill covers, so that made this easier knowing that he can go back to stock easily if needed.
First thing was first....remove old UBER small Bose speaker.....it was cute.
Mocked up the stock grill, cut out what I needed, then cut a ring to fit the pod....after some trimming here and there, she fit like a dream. Tacked that into place and she got some Duraglas love. After that, i secured the pods from the backside, then stretched Grill Cloth over them and they recieved a final sealer coat of resin. Grinded that down, threw some matching carpet over them like their neighbors to the sides of them...and BOOM goes the dynamite.
Tweeters were simple enough....cut giant hole in door, place awesome basketball-esque tweeter in it's place.
He wanted these re-wired and ran to the rear for his 4 channel amp, so I'm not sure what these will sound like...but I KNOW they'll pound better than that cute little 3" Bose thought was a good attempt at Sound Quality.
This was a fun little project....can't wait to do more on this.
