Very nice looking drivers ... Wish I could hear them ...

Welcome to SSA !!!

Nice setup ...

Imagine that ... Can someone please tell me what RedGuard is ??? Maybe a link or something ...

Have you ever put your vehicle in competition to see how it scores ?? I'd be very interested to see how a setup like that does ...

Welcome to SSA !!!

Awesomeo Vids Bro !!! I really wish I could get started on my home system ...

Awesome looking setup !!!

Having some sort of degree in Basic Electronics / Broadband Communications would help ...

We Cool Bro ... You get NO bad reps from me ...

Hmmm, guess no one has tried this yet ... Guess I will try it out and see what will happen ... May help, may not, never know until you try ... Ont thing is 4 sure, I'm going to a junkyard and find me a test dummy ... Thank you guys for all the Great comments !!!

Welcome to SSA !!!

Awesome looking enclosure there bro ... Very clean work ...

Very Nice !!!

WOW !!! Awesome Vids !!!

Welcome to SSA !!! Awesome Vid !!!

I have no additional processing ... honnestly, don't want it either ... Moving my mids to the doors (stock locations) along with my rears helped out my stage by making it seem to be COMPLETELY across the dash with width beyond the mirrors. but kinda draws the stage and image (depth) closer to the listener(s) ... With just a little help from the center, hopefully will correct this and make the center stronger in the process ... I do not want the center (operating at very low power) to over power the left and right channels (at all), so I do not see a BIG problem with messing up left and right separation.

And further defines the problem in SQ competitions. As always, it depends on what your goals are. Personally if you are doing it, you might as well move your mids up high on both pillars and make a center pod so that they are all at the same level. And then of course I'd only use it for movies which I don't watch in a car so the reasoning is dubious. Of course for some reason you also seem to use rears which is equally as dubious so I say go for it if it makes you happy. Thank you guys for the great comments ... I do not want this thread to turn into a Sound Quality debate ... All I wanted to know is if this has ever been done before so I could possible see the outcome and something to go by ... M5/ you are not going to like it no matter how I set it up ... I know that already. Thank you Impious, Unfortunately, I can't afford a processor, got too much other stuff needed first ... If I set it up it would be only to enhance the center I have now and keep the WIDE width I have now using the rears. The rears pull my stage back just enough you can tell it only on some songs, but one 6.5 in the center should make deep male voices stay on the dash and not drift down to the door drivers ... So for now it would be a mono channel off one of the amps in stereo if that make sense ...

EDIT: the kick pannels are now back to stock and the 6.5 drivers are now in the doors ... Work not complete yet so no pics to post yet ... sorry guys ...

I'm seriously thinking that this is going to call for me to go to a junkyard and get me a extra dash to practice on ...

Thanks Bro ... No pressure huh ...

I'm just thinking that building a small enclosure in the dash (not anything above the dash) in this application will be complicated ... and still have some practical use of the defroster ... Guess I will know more once I get the dash out ...

There is a Black one near my house for 4000 ... wish I could get it ... Yes, I like it !!! I don't care for the rims either ... just my suggestion ...

doesn't really matter what size you cut that hole ... without proper water protectioon, you are wasting your time ... You might want to measure that ALOT closer ... from the bottom of your lowest point of your cab to the highest point of your cab ... might not be 24 inches tall ( we are talking 2 ft high there bro) ... My blow thru opening is only 12.5 inches tall ... and a VERY tight fit ... I'm talking tighter than Dick's hatband here ... And not sure how the port will perform with the 24 inches being the width ...
