| Speaker Install! Drivers Door Done!!!! |
Subject: Speaker Install! Drivers Door Done!!!! by bogus on 2010/9/5 2:37:47 I flat out SCORED at the U-Pick-It lot today. Got a pair of these Jaguar speaker grills for FREE. They are real metal, real chrome, real neat. And I have wanted to do something cool with my door speaker pods for some time. I am currently working on the drivers side door. Follow this one along... Pic 1 is a grill assembled, 2 is disassembled. The first thing I did was clean the grills and repaint them. Simple shot of gloss black did that! Next up is the baffle. Pic 3 is the chrome ring taped on the board, I then marked around it. Pic 4 is me using the masking tape roll to approximate the speaker. The last pic is the board all marked up. The blue areas get cut away, so does the area outside the circle. The red boxed areas will need the router to trim them down and allow for the speaker to sit flush. Next up tomorrow, cut'n and fitting the speaker to the baffle, then fitting to the door panel. If I have the material, I will cover the panel and be done. |
