haha for the money... i put in systems every day and make alot doing it. if u wanna see some of my builds go to www.myspace.com/kgdesignsautosound

and funny thing u ask about the doors.. i tried taking the damn handle assembly out yesterday and i can get it. i got the 2 bolts out but it keeps getting hung up on the lever/spring thing at the top and the lock at the bottom. and to take out the inner door looks like taking out the glass can u give me any tips at all cuz i noticed yours are shaved and its basicly the same door?

im getting new pics up tonight i just finished glassing sanding and painting the inside of the box. i gotta get some mdf tongiht and build the front/amp rack. i can get some pics up in an hour or so acually

[tahoexfixssd 0]

alrite i got all the glassin done so heres the well needed pics!

these pics were taken during the first layers of glassing. ther is 3 or more layers of matt of everything. as well as about 1/4 of resin in the bottom to smooth it out. after that i sanded all the roughest spots and smoothed it out as much as i could with filler. then put 3 coats of resin over the top of that. after it was as smooth as i could get it i painted it up with some high gloss white paint.

i had to take out a brace to paint easier but i have to put that back as well as 2 more and some all thread the front will be put on this weekend!

It's on the small side for the subs.

[tahoexfixssd 0]

that was the maximum i could get outta the space i had. im sure they could use a lil bit more but it should be alrite

[bassahaulic 155]

It's like 2 cubes per woofer. Not to bad..... could be a tad bigger.

I get to go big with my box.

alrietyy i got some more picsss.

i put 2 more vertical 2x4 braces in and also 45'd the bottom and made it all nice and smooth with some culk. i also added a piece of allthread on the main supports.

i first glued the back board on with come liquid nails and then countersunk and screwed it all. a piece of 1/2 will be added to this later for the amps to mount to.

i have to touch up the inside a little bit, i used come cult the was white the dried clear lol gotta paint over that. but so far the paint is hard as a rock!

here is is with the amp and side trim panels in place. i was going to make new ones but upon ripping the vinyl off the old, realized that they just needed a little bit of trimming and cleanin up and theyl work fine!

BTW the XTC baffles are for some selenium super tweets. they have a layer of matt of the back so they are sturdy. i think once i get the tweeter in they will beairtight anyway so there is no posiblility of flex.

alrite ive been busy waiting to wrap my trim panels until the shipment from parts express comes in (it came today) that contains the grill guides i need to install before ei wrap the amp trim and make the battery trim panel. i decided to make a fiberglass mount for my rear screen to mount to. if anyone has seen it in person or rermembers from pics that it was mounted up at the last minute literally minutes before i left my house to go to prom and it was at an angle and did not conform to the curves of the headliner and looked half ass. i never got around to doing this last year but here it is. and it looks a millions times better.

the old look^^^^^

made a frame out of 1/4 inch mdf and used some kerfin techniques

glassed and ground downn

couple layerrs of filler to smooth it all out.

added the braces that the screen will mount to the headliner with and wrapped it in black vinyl to match everthing else.

LOOKS SEXAYY lol.

i also have been working on a new console lid. everything is stored in the back room of my garage and my mom doesnt realize chit is fragile and set a bunch of stuff on top of the console, knicking up the vinyl on the console lid. i was really pissed becasue that took FOREVER to wrap in vinyl. but i saw it as an opertunity to do somthing bettter with the armrest pad lol....

cut it all off!

made a new armrest pad frame out of 1/4mdf, wrapped it up in tape and propped it up about an 1/8 with double sided tape to compensate for vinyl.

used body filler to buildup a nice angle around the endges and sanded it smooth

popped insert out and now we have a nice contoured edge.

sanded the edges of the insert down a bit to compensate for vinyl and here we have the insert in! it will alter be covered in grey vinyl with an embroidered KG logo and the rest will be recovered in black!
