speakers

in a custom box.

 

assuming your kickers are subs and most likely 12s", so put them in an enclosed speaker box or if you have the imagination, create one.

 

the kickers are ? 6"?? 6x9? 5 1/4"?

 

You will have to make an MDF speaker ring for them to mount to the door frame. This will also give you more depth so the window won't hit them.

 

hahaha notice how the speaker you pulled out is its own spacer? yea well bust out that ol dremel and cut the speaker assmbly apart. this will leave you with a ring that will still lock into your door and you can mount your speaker to. or cut wood or mdf rings. dremeling the speakers is alot quicker and you can use the locking system too though.

 

thats how i did it at least. be careful to not cut off those locking tabs. you need those other wise those are cheap crap speakers anyway. have fun!!

 

MDF= medium density fiberboard. its a higher quality of particle baord in lamemans terms. any lowes and or home depot will have it.

if u dont need to make a ring and they fit in the stock hole and clear everything in front and in back of the speaker then just use a cordless style drill with self tapping screws, screw speaker down to the metal.

 

have you changed out the speakers yet kru? the hole behind them is a triangle. while I admit those would be some neat speakers hes gonna have to do mounts of somesort. the reason I did it my way was to keep the door intact (no holes) and I dont plan on putting the stockies back in.

 

yes i have. I used an airsaw and trimmed the metal away and then built a mdf baffle and laid dynomate over the entire door. both inside and the skin that the spker mounts to sealling up the interior standing wave.

wow to technical for myself-LOL!

so yeah I have.

 

good good good. I havent gotten around to deadening my door and it makes me want to cry everytime i get outside my car with the stereo on :cry:

how much sound gets through your doors now with them deadened?
