RF T1 652S & T152S came in a few days ago,

IMAG0054.jpg

IMAG0058.jpg

IMAG0056.jpg

IMAG0059.jpg

Definitely one of the best component sets Ive owned, can't wait to install them

IMAG0060.jpg

I can't decide how im going to do this, i'm putting both of these in my front doors, i have little fiber glass experience and i don't want to be reupholstering my doors or anything

Waiting on a lot of stuff to come in this coming week, i will keep the pics updated. Thinking about making a home depot run tomorrow

Im still debating about my front doors/ speaker setup honestly, im not sure what my plan is. I really dont want to fiberglass if i did maybe just a little portion, bc i dont want to get stuff upholstered . I like more stock appearing things. I'll know sooner or later, my budget is pretty free right now. If anyone has suggestions or ideas that would be kool

Well put one set of speakers in the front door and one set in the rear doors and call it a day. Otherwise your gonna have to do fiberglass work to your door and more than likely have to upholster it as well to get both component sets or mids to fit.
