That's what why I said small...sealed.
Nice response in the overall low range with it taking as little space as possible. -------------------- |

If that happens then what will you do for the bottom door?
 Hopefully this works out. I'm wanting to do a very similar setup myself, just need to find the premium door panels and brackets first.

I suppose I could do that... Just can use whatever grilles are provided with the component set. I just trust the factory's ability of getting things perfectly symmetrical more so than myself.

Then I have a small 300 watt amp under the driverseat to power the 8" speakers and a 600 watt amp in the trunk to power the 12s njccmd - it looks like you are missing the extra insulation for the door. There is a metal plate that bolts over the hole in the door and a plastic block that reinforces the door panel. I found mine in a '98 vert in the scrap yard with an 8 speaker setup found it!!! your pic..

That's ok, I have to get the head-unit sorted first before doing anything else. Once yours is done you should make a video of the system. Still debating between going with door subs or using the the 10" DVC 500W RMS Rockford I have laying around. -------------------- 2001 Miata LS 5-speed

I guess it's just more a matter of getting over cutting holes into your door panels than anything else.
So when should the subs be in?

I have done this as well its absolutely nerve wracking. I was so scared of messing it up on the first one but the second was a cake walk. Just plan it out and have some patience. It's really not that hard

see there is a trick!!!
its already has area to insert the screws. so you insert the screws, and the speaker will indent the plastic. it guides you to cut where u need. this is after i drilled holes for the speaker grill.

Had the same problem with my JL 's I was in too much of a hurry for some bass so mine aren't perfectly center as far as the logo goes but I'll probably fix that when I replace the car

For vibration and resonance, coverage of 25% is enough. You are wasting material.
A good read, if you want to get the car silent. http://www.sounddeadenershowdown.com/ -------------------- |
