Default Speaker panel redo pics and the crossover

Here's what the panel I built looked like:



Now here is yesterday's rework



And how it'll sit in the car. I'm going to recess the Polk crossover into the panel just above where it's sitting. And I'll paint the crossover cover too.




I'm taking tomorrow (Wed) off to try and knock these things out . . .

I'm relocating the placement of the rear speakers. I have 5-1/4" Polk Momo components that'll fill that hole.

Too many hours in this project.

Man I think you passed hours and are into the days... It's nice work and no one else will have anything like it and if you took it to a shop that would charge you an arm and a leg and still not do as nice of work.

I have not put in the hours you have but I spent about 5-6 hours yesterday making an ipod mount that clips into the ashtray area, which to any normal person would be a waste of time.
