Thanks for the info on the panels! I've collected the chrome retaining strip, risers/lower mounts and vinyl over the past year, so now I just need to get the 6x9's, a couple lights (I want them to turn on like the courtesy lights) and some hardboard.

I see you have screws just through the panels to hold them in...do you think there's any way to not have to do that? I was thinking of drilling the hole in the riser a little bigger and using those snap in types like new cars use this way I can hide them behind the vinyl. Do you think that'd work?
