can see what your saying about making it something its not but you would be doing that buying 180 seats lol, i had to drive to brighton to get my 180 seats was worth the drive though just need to get the drivers seat fixed.
how long untill the cars done then

i can live with only having just the seats tho, swings in rounderbouts because i wanted a nice looking rear bench aswell and there's nothing else really other then the 180s that are nice i may re-upolster i wonder what aftermarkets would look like ????? .... and havent a clue lol i want to get it to a stage where its driverble like you know im wanting to do a propper conversion for a double din but think its gonna have to wait as the money well is dry lol may just gloss black the center cpnsole n bob it all back together
plus there was a few parts i wasnt happy with in the flocking, but the guy was more then happy to redo so its all good

right, the update im really looking forward to hearing your comments on this ....
i purchesed these 4" pioneers and they sound great hitting 180w each

started up by knocking a small enclosure together by recycling this fibreglass box i knocked up a while back


i stud welded 4 25mm threads on the back to trim off the speakers and routed 2 mdf rings when all together looks like this..


i then gor the rings powder coated and painted the silver domes black...


iv also trimmed the rings in carpet looks really neat


the inside edge of the box has been routed to create a ledge for a plexi glass window to fit..

carpeted the inside and drilled pre holes for dowles, screws now counter sunk n all flush..



speakers are now in the enclosure they look like there floating

and this little bad boy is going in the middleof the rear seat you can faintly see the quied lines on the seat..

few minor un-forseen things such as this seat support in the way im having to grind it of and re-position it

update tomorrow
