DECIM8 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 spacers .. Or dump the 6x9s and get a set of 6" components.. and a sub .. ur call tho big price difference.. spacers change the 6.5" hole to a 6" x 9" socket ready for your speaker however it does elevate the speaker some.

Trav33 Posted June 19, 2007 Share Posted June 19, 2007 I just had my splits installed professionally. I always thought it was best to point the tweeter at your face, so you can hear it, as high frequency sound is quite directional. However my installer said this effects the sound you hear, and they are best mounted on the pillar, but pointed accross the front of the car towards the other pillar.

LatinR33 Posted June 24, 2007 Share Posted June 24, 2007 Why dump the 6x9's?? If your willing to spend the time to make a new parcel shelf from MDF then its a fairly decent way to go. The added bass you get from the 6x9's is pretty good if you dont wanna go subs. I know a guy with splits up front and 6x9's rear custom parcel shelf sounds good once amplified.

Krimz Posted June 27, 2007 Author Share Posted June 27, 2007 i put my 6x9s the other way round, had a little trouble geting them right but it all good now. Still having trouble fiting my 6.5 splits in the front, the magnet is way to big to fit.

HypeR33 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 get a custom rear parcel made up to fit the 6x9's and shaped to clear the battery. I have a custom rear parcel shelf on mine to allow deeper 6's to clear the battery. Looks factory as they put the factory vent in the shelf. If you want pics I can take some and post it up. The tweeters I put on top of the door near the base of the a-pillar.

pro_sniper Posted September 2, 2007 Share Posted September 2, 2007 Here are a couple of shots of my tweeter pods. Got hold of an extra set of kick panels and fibreglassed the Focal tweeters' flush mounts to the panels. After a LOT of sanding, i covered the panels in texture spray, let dry, and sprayed them matte black. Pics look bad, they're much better in real life. http://www.bilunderholdning.no/Web/images/IMG_5932.jpg http://www.bilunderholdning.no/Web/images/IMG_5930.jpg - Jan Kenneth - - Norway - Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/173381-custom-installs-and-speaker-pods/#findComment-3323809 Share on other sites More sharing options...
