I think I'm going to move the tweeter to the left just a tad, because it looks (might just be the angle) but it looks like its closer to the 8" than the 6's, so i want to make sure its centered before i glass it.


After seeing this im quite intriqued, i had this idea but havent found a way to build a panel to match the texture on the door. Would you care to share you secret?

im also filling the hole in the top of the dash from the headlight sensor. im relocating it to somewhere outside the car where it wont get wet, but will see the sunlight when its out. im sick and tired of my headlights coming on anytime of day, due to the sensor being behind my windshield tint, it always thinks its night. lol.

What kinda suede did you use? Where'd ya get it from? I'm planning on rewrapping my headliner, and b and c pillars. I just can't find anything that will stretch right.

I used Synergy Suede from a local place in Tampa.

i think this is it, but i paid about 27 a yard, not 50 lol.

mine is the dark graphite

it doesnt have much stretch to it, but i use it on all my cars headliners and pillars, and i've never had an issue.
