Nicely done simple but effective
Looks great champ! That colour has aged a lot better than I thought it would, nice pickup. I'm guessing you're the man behind Memphis Car Audio?
Was a huge fan of the VT, so will be following this keenly!

Ah righto then. You've got enough sound deadening there to line a small cruise liner! Should sound ace once its all done mate

Sorry about the lack of updates!
Progress so far;
Sub boxes fully designed and built, both 15" qvc wired up (hmm 8 guage speaker wiringnothing new
) the front doors have started to be glassed getting ready for the 6.5 and 8 inch drivers. rears doors finished with the 6.5" synchronous speakers. most of boot/rear seats fully sound deadened. Onto my fourth box of stinger roadkill, hopefully the last box. c300 glassed in the front coint compartment. i have also made a computer mount on the centro console for the touchscreen computer that will be running the alpine sound manager. the h800 processor has been wired mostly just trying to find a wiring diagram off the stock h/u so i can wire the rcas. if you can help let me know
i think thats about it, hopefully it will be ready for the next round of bass battle
PIC TO COME
-Smit
Cannot wait to see some pics of the setup. Sounds like a lot of effort is going into it mate, congrats!

whats that black stuff you used for the sound deadining ?
-Smit
I hope you also sikaflexed between the boot skin & braces as much as you could. The foam wont stop the skin from seperating from the frame.
Cheers

Although a slightly different scenario, i believe it will be fine. this subs are not firing into the boot either.

Relly digging the door pods, hope we can see some more progress pics on how they are constructed!
Enjoying the build, Love everything apart from the cheap white/red RCA's & The exposed X/over on the rear doors.
Cheers

Some nice work there mate.
