thanks chad, but i think i will put my speakers back in the doors, it sure did sound good,

thank you McMurphy, yes i did shrink the metal(got the idea from allaboutchevelles) and done a lot of you tube watching...very scary for a novice.
I have to echo that for me too about not being shy!

Flips, before you mount your speakers back in there, look at the rubber foam cups/cones that will cup the back side of the speaker, and mount between the speaker and the door. These will serve a dual purpose.

Firstly they will not only extend the life of your speakers, but will provide much more rich sound quality due to speaker engineering and the physics of sound waves produced in this manner.

Secondly they will protect your speaker from water damage and electrical shorts by keeping the back side of them enclosed so that neither water nor dust and dirt can get on them.

I put them in my Tempest and swear by them.

Would you be so kind as to link the ones you thought were the most helpful for me?
