so i already made the molds of the kicks a month or so back. after that i tried to sculp the mids out of expandable foam.... decided it wasnt working out right for the passenger side and gave up. here are few pics of the passenger side.

passenger side build - nothing fg'd yet, just aimed and grill cloth stretched over

here is the driver side.

having to deal with the ebrake pedal was a bit annoying..

i also tried to sculp this side out of foam.. turned out to be a waste of money.. but whatever

open to any advice, thoughts, comments, etc. sorry about the shitty cell phone pics :(

i think i need to change the shape of the lower portion of the passenger side kick so it matched the driver side.

ill get better pics up of both of them in my car to give you guys a better idea of how they look.

Why didn't you relocate your emergency brake?

Good job keeping your wiring tidy.

honestly i have no idea how to relocate it besides completely removing it.

its still functional with the pod installed

the wiring its pretty ugly now that i added the 2nd kx250.2 but i plan to mount it overtop of the other one and add some fans for cooling. hopefully i have enough depth... otherwise ill have to come up with something or redo the entire amp rack :(

thanks, not sure on the size. currently they will be sealed. if that doesn't work out ill try aperiodic into the carpet. and if that fails ill cut some carpet and vent it out.

actually if i decide to cut some carpet ill just redo the pods. there is at least 3 inches of carpet and foam before you get to metal in the kicks.. i could probably fit the driver side pod behind the e brake and not interfere with it
