Re: kick panel question

I mounted mine using three sheetmetal screws per side. I also made a thin foam gasket and put between mine and the metal to prevent any vibration issues but mine are more like speaker pods than kickpanels.

Re: kick panel question

Do you have picture of exactly what kick panels you're using?

Re: kick panel question

I made these out of resin. Not really that hard just takes a little sanding and patience.

Re: kick panel question

Jarwood, I made mine the same way. Been using that method for over 20 years now. It works out nice.

good job on the set you made above.

Re: kick panel question

Thanks brother. That was my first time. I'm familiar with body work, just not interior fab work. I actually enjoyed making them and started on a GMC design for my speaker box.
