Looking forward to your design. Especially if it is an insert.

That would work there beautifully as long as its not deep. I did more measurements with the wife sitting in her seat and well it looks as if i will have enough to use the footwell after all. Its going to eat into taller peoples leg room but hey how often is someone else in that seat..... Should blend into cab well and give me the front stage that i want. The 8 could go into the rear side panel but honestly i dont have the time to build the insert that is needed to cover the woofer properly. And well honestly i dont want to cut the panel which is what i would have to do. Its easy enough but just dont wanna cross that bridge, because then i wont quit. It would become a full custom build with all the trimmings.....

well glad this thread got left alone I had to go delete a bunch of crazy posts from when I logged in on a public computer and some how they managed to figure out my password and just started posting craziness on a bunch of different threads and using my phone I didn't notice all the notifications until just now. Keep an eye on your password or you will be the next guy or girl claiming their car has 5,000 hp and is only good on the track if it is running monster truck tires lol. Damn kids! let me know if you see any other craziness that was posted by my account so I can delete the posts.

Put me down for one. Any way I could get one for the other side too just so they match. I know these are all about function but I think they look cool and kind of want both sides to match.

Thats not a bad idea at all but with my sub box design i couldnt use it unless i had it custom bent.

Thus the reason I don't use public anything. Including WiFi. ... I used to sit at coffee shops sniffing ip packets nabbing at least 80 passwords a day. Would go home and log into accounts, read emails, laugh at pics they took forward emails to others...general trolling. Them maybe chang their passwords. But that was a long time ago and have learned since.

Speaker could be put in at an angle too. Facing forward or back. So it may be able to handle deeper speakers.

The other carpet mat is a different shape, and I'm not sure what the design will look like. We can tackle that friday and I'll get back to you on it.


The first batch of heel pates is all spoken for. Anyone else who wants one, I'll be starting a new list next weekend after this batch is built.

Well yes and no, there isnt as much space as you would think. Especially if you plan on building it outside the car. The opening is odd shaped, i could relocate a electronic device of some sort, but there is a airbag sensor that im not sure if theres enough room to relocate it outside the opening versus into it. now it was mounted outside the panel then you would have room.

Well I was on my way back from the store when a car behind me with HID's was coming up fast, didn't think anything of it until I was about to turn into my neighborhood when the car drove past. It was an FRS/BRZ! I want to say it was a BRZ due to the HID's but they were bluish and not the factory white so it might have been an FRS. Any who I decided to follow it and saw that it made a right turn to the neighborhood just west of mine, at that point I decided to not follow it home lol But if anyone know any Ultramarine/Galaxy Blue, FRS/BRZ's in Laveen. Speak up! Lol

I'll be posting pics of my exhaust here in a bit. The new setup sounds great! It's nicer to live with then when I just had the dump pipe. Though its a lot quieter then before, it definitely sounds better in the higher RPM's.
