Posted March 18, 201312 yr Starting a build log for my 1995 Cadillac Eldorado. Will use Pioneer Head Unit, Blues speakers, and Linear Power amps. Working on it as I have time, will update as often as possible.
March 19, 201312 yr Have you ever thought about doing smoked gray wood grain. It would look awsome in there. Edited March 19, 201312 yr by sound=vibration
March 20, 201312 yr Author Looking good. Any subwoofer plans? nice to see you here at SSA Thank you. Yes, I'm planning to run 3 Blues Iso-Kits, two 8 in. and one 10 in. I already have the drivers, just need to put them together. That is, unless I change my mind between now and time to install.
March 20, 201312 yr Author Have you ever thought about doing smoked gray wood grain. It would look awsome in there. No, I haven't. Didn't even know it existed. Does it come in a dash kit or something?
March 20, 201312 yr Author Was able to get a little work done today. Hopefully get the passenger side completed tomorrow.
March 22, 201312 yr Author A little more work completed. Passenger side door ready for the 6.5 and made up some cables to replace the factory grounds. I've installed them in the car, just don't have any pictures yet. Will get them up soon.
March 26, 201312 yr Author Started today on the driver's side tweeter mount. Going to attempt to locate in the sail panel. Didn't get a whole lot done, too windy and cold for me. I'm ready for Spring.
March 28, 201312 yr Author Driver's side tweeter mount starting to take shape, doing some test fitting, think I'm going to cover it in vinyl. Got the passenger side 6.5 in, will work on the tweeter for this door next.

April 1, 201312 yr Author Hello Chris, Welcome to SSAVery Nice looking Car !!! Can not wait to hear it ... Hopefully I can have a hand at helping you tune it. See you soon brother !!!Hey man, thanks. Yeah, working on it, just slow go. I'm going to try and make one of those upcoming shows, Lebanon, TN or Florence, AL. Hopefully will see you there!
April 4, 201312 yr Author Sorry for the lack of updates recently. Weather here has not been too friendly over the last few days and when I work, it has to be outside, no garage. Hoping to get back on it in the next few days.
April 4, 201312 yr Author I know everyone likes to see subs, so here are the four 8" Blues drivers that I will be using in this build. I just have to get the materials to put the Iso-kits together.
April 5, 201312 yr Author Beautiful day here today. Have been working on the passenger side tweeter mount some. I've had to test fit and fine tune multiple times to make sure I get the angle right.
April 5, 201312 yr Author Looking good there , and I LOVE those Eldorado's.Thank you. Yes, I love this car too. 10 years ago I would have probably laughed at it. But today is a different story. It's very comfortable, drives nice, and has a little power when you need it.
April 20, 201312 yr Author Finally got the tweeters like I want, I think. Covered them in black vinyl to match the factory sail panels. Will post some pics later as soon as I take them.
April 22, 201312 yr Author Managed to get around to taking a couple of pictures. Still haven't permanently mounted them yet. Tossing around a couple of ideas of exactly how I want to do it, for looks and function.
April 27, 201312 yr Author Working on the sub enclosure some today. Will be .55 cu. ft. per side, have double baffle, tuned at 25 hz., and ported through package panel. Two 8" Blues Iso-kits will be mounted on outside of enclosure.
