Apart from that, any input is welcome, being an installer Im always looking to improve my work. Baffles are made from 1/2" mdf. More photos to come within the next few days.

April 19, 201312 yr I'd keep everything you can out of the door. Terrible place for any electronics. The deadening faux pas isn't as bad as adding rears Some MLV would go a long way in helping too.

At least its not actually on the inside of the door itself where condensation and such builds easily.

Would have been doing things differently if I ran the shop.. Boss rules over me though. I guess Ill start to install cross overs in the kick panels / B pillars, that sort of thing. Biggest pain in the ass with these vehicles are the connectors in in the door grommets, makes wires a lot harder to run.

Biggest pain in the ass with these vehicles are the connectors in in the door grommets, makes wires a lot harder to run. An easy solution to that is to use four conductor wire. You can buy 18 gauge four conductor at lowes. If the xovers are mounted in the kick panel area this will work well.
April 19, 201312 yr No way in hell that's gonna fit in a molex plugYou use the factory speaker wire for the mid and either drill out two empty holes in the plug and use primary wire for the tweeter or break one of the tabs that hold the plug in the jam and run the wire there and epoxy the plug back into the jam.
April 19, 201312 yr Sure if you need 100' of it.Um, it is at a shop. 100' will go REALLY quick. I'd step up to the bigger rolls.
