That's where i stopped tonight. Tomorrow I will be making a TEMP Amp Rack, Mounting the ground (forgot power drill.. FTL!) Cutting out the wood, door panels, and sheet metal on the doors, and if my sound deadener comes tomorrow (suppose to arrive April 16th) i'll be treating my doors :) Should be another full day of work.

Oh yeah! The speakers came in a infinity shipping box, i wasn't home but i had my girl stay at my house to sign for the package, she sent me a picture and i seen the infinity logo and was PISSED.. i thought "greeeaaattt, im going to have to ship em back and then wait, then have em shipped back to me!" i thought it was going to take a month+ !

BUT! thankfully when i opened the box i say that sexy /////Alpine ;)

Yeah, that shipment is just for the (2) doors ;)

You will love the type-r's, they will definetly need a month or so to loosen up. YOU got the perfect amp for them, They sound great with 100 watts to them. They are definetly power hungry but handle every bit of it with a nice clean signal, I can't imagine what two pair will sound like. smile.gif
