All the trim from the rear has been removed.
The majority of the install will be covered in the red cobra material (used on the door pods) All three Rockford amps have been powder coated silver and will be displayed in the centre with blue neons and a perspex cover over them. The components covers have been sprayed silver.
Wont look too red cause all the other bits will break it up.

I need 2 metres to do all 4 of my door cards. I'm looking for it in dark blue colour. £70 sounds a lot better than £80 but I'm down in derby so I'd need to also pay for delivery so not sure if it'll be worth it if its heavy stuff??

Install looks well nice

I'll ask anyways mav.
Have to take speakers out to change bulbs. Not a problem really.
Cause the subs are in sealed enclosures tho, there's a piece been cut out and sealed back in behind the sub. just have to cut round the seal, replace the bulb, put the wood back in and reseal.
Think I might change ALL the bulbs tho before its put together properly

It's all been designed by RAM at Wakefield and they are audio specialists so I've just taken their advice on it all. I wouldnt have thought there would be a problem where the speakers went in such a small area as a boot me self, but what do I know

The subs are in the same box and I should think that RAM would have got the volume right.
I left the volume and dimensions to the experts. I'm just doing the donkey work. Glassing and filling and sanding

aren't component speakers 'STEREO'?
how can you get a stereo effect if the speakers are all on the same side?

or am i talking rubbish again?

don't forget to get your neon from...me!

think the components are in the boot just to give a fuller range of sound with the boot open. When the boots open, theres not much of an effect of stereo staging.

Basically, they are just there to look good and make a bit of sound.
