I started working on fiberglass door pods for both midrange and midbass drivers. Im going to be using the CDT ES-07 for midrange and Hertz Hi Energy HV200 as midbass. The cdt will be IB and the hertz will be sealed. Ive only started so don't trip on how it looks because the face has yet to even begin. Just made the cutout for the pod and seeing how it looks on the door and what will hit. Also did measurements to see how far in the door we can fiberglass. Prepping for fiberglass by tapping off the panel Test fitting the already glassed "pod" in the door. Both luckily fit well and now they are ready for more fiberglass to give it the support this is from a while back just never posted it. hoping to do some more work soon. Oh and i decided on the blue Kevlar/carbon fiber Here's both the speaker rings cut out, routered and mounted to the pod. Here's the after pic of the resin soaked fabric after it dried and we started sanding. I forgot to get some pics in between but what basically happened was we sprayed the edges of the back of the pod with spray adhesive... pulled some fabric over the ring, restretched it and brushed resin on the fabric. After it fully dried sanded it to prep for the fiberglass We put 2 layers of fiberglass on at once so this pic shows both of them after the resin dried Same as before... sanding the fiberglass to prep for the third final layer heres the third layer of fiberglass after its dry. If you notice the weave is different.... Its labeled as "thicker" material but its about the same physical thickness as before just a finer weave. It was a bit more difficult to work with but overall worth it. Also it seemed quite a bit more see thru once it was resin soaked Cut off all the fiberglass and smoothed it all out pic of it all done with black primer.... test fit in the door (looks pretty badass just like that IMO) Starting to put on the blue kevlar/ carbon fiber all done... epoxied and clear coated Ive been so busy at work that i haven't been able to get any sunlight pics so i took some for now and will post more later... the 2 of the 3 that show the blue Kevlar decently well are an idea of what it looks like in person with sunlight or up close (in really good sunlight it stands out more) but the 3rd is a better idea of what it looks like either in artificial light or at first glance when its not quite so bright out. Enjoy!
I just finished and install some tweeter pods in the door sail. I had some 25mm rockford fosgate tweeters but with so much of the sound coming from below it would sound muffled on some songs. The new tweeters are 2" cdt ES-02's and bring the vocals and overall soundstage up quite a bit.

Why do you use two Alternaters!! There is a much better system. There is a Dual-Speed Alternator set up unit system that shift automatically to the highest gear when the car/boat(engine) is at idle or low RPM. So you have a better electricity supply at idle mode or low RPM with the Antonov Dual-Speed Alternator set up unit. It shift automatically back when your car/boat(engine) has reach a higher speed (RPM) See this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tr0bBPUqJCc
