Installed the speaker pods and the initial fit is ok. I will definitely design revisions after testing.

Mounting the pods to the pillars was accomplished with a pair of threaded lamp rods.














The result is aiming that I am excited to experience.

I also needed to remove the 6x9 midbass and swap with the new Alpine woofers. I use a gasketing material around the speaker and I solder the adapter to the speaker leads.





The speaker grills look great and I see a future where I will integrate these into the door panels to move the woofer closer to the door and reduce roll-off.












I rebuilt the amp rack to put the JL VX600/6i at the rear with the MV1000/1 in front. You may also notice the Helix HD BT that is resting on the wheel well, which will be secured and will be my input to the amp/dsp to bypass the stock radio madness.






And in the near future, I am looking to move from the JL VXi to Alpine. I am repairing a PXA-H-800 DSP



And I added a MRV-1505 to my collection. When paired with my MRV-F405 I am just 2 channels short of old school, made in Japan goodness.
