My GS Then to Now

thanks!
yeah we have decided to run the hybrid audio imagines up front so the front stage should be great with the Arc KS in the rear for fill. We've done several build with this staging and it should be awesome! It will be a good platform for me for the time being and will be easy to upgrade speakers later since I am doing all the deadening and running of wires now. Prepping now for later down the road.
Thanks!
lol there is no final result. I don't like keeping things the same for too long. Gotta change it up every now and then.
yeah I know, they fit like a glove with those adapters. Luckily, his adapters were the perfect size. The fronts could have sit out a little more but it wasn't bad for the random idea. Just tried them and they fit nice. Almost makes me want to sell them and get newer wheels, almost haha. That will be part of the next phase in changes.
thanks!
lol yeah right we are, however, hoping to have this done and squared away for the ELITE Summer Nationals in Spartanburg, SC in August. It would be nice to have it at the HIN/NOPI event in July but we will see.

thanks adrian! tested out the hybrid audio imagines today. wow! building the baffles and rings was more work than i thought but it was all worth it!
Stock speakers in stock location
Took out the amoeba pod lol
Disassembled the pod
Check out this crazy pioneer port action from factory
Made some baffles from 3/4" mdf
Looks like a little pig shape to me but whatever works
Magnet size difference
Speaker surface difference

Got around to taking apart the mirrors and painting them black. I was going to do carbon wrapping but the curves on the mirror proved to be too extreme for the threads to stretch without looking funny. Big thanks to Bucky for spraying them black for me.
Tool off the mirrors while John was getting his Miata painted
Rough sanding down of the white paint that was on there
Took apart the mounts and mirrors to get both surfaces sanded and painted evenly
Sanding the mirror cups
Sanding the mirror mounts
Ready for paint
