Also agreed that the mounting plate is neat and clean (I would have maybe recessed the sub behind tan matching grille cloth for a Benz customer however-to each his own though!).

I am also curious to see pics of how the enclosure behind the plate was configured. Not much room behind there...

 

Actually the customer wanted the ability to put it back to factory original later if he decided to sell it so we ended up with .3 cubes and amazingly enough the Image Dynamics 8" sounds beautifully in it.

That location is actually the factory CD Changer local so there is a door into a pocket where the CD player is mounted originally in this location.

 

I just finished a car using Arc 8's in around .3 cubes each, and it sounded great. The Arc 8's are essentially the exact same woofer as the ID 8, so i'll bet that sounded quite nice! Looks good too!

 

If i can figure out how to host them somewhere ill post build pics

 

This guy brought us his subs (8" Diamonds) and His Amp (Eclipse 5 Channel) then we did the build and put a Pioneer AVIC F90BT in his dash and Image Dynamics CTX 65 Components in front doors and Image Dynamics 5" x 7" in the back doors.



The pic is hard to see much but we did the job keeping him all of original factory cabin space still availableto him so it all ended up behind his seat with a clean look and nice quality sound that is pretty loud also.

 

cool cool.. i have some xs65s and haven't put em in yet.. can't wait

 

Why? Your sub stage is an insult to those components, and vice versa. Those components are pretty damn serious, I considered running the XS 6x9s with my horns but really didn't want to spend $450 on a pair of 6x9s. I will do it one day probably though, once I get money to get a badass processor as well.

 

I got them for decent price.. and i turn the sub off time to time as its loud as piss and not made for all the music i listen too.. even turned down.. so i like comps that sound good

 

yeah jims laid out the paint on the body of the car i built it at my shop did most of the prep work. Down fall is i finished the car and it sat at the shop for 4 months before it ever saw paint. i ended up painting the speaker box bc i was afraid of how long it would take to get it back. But i will say this the paint work by jims is about the best i've ever seen i dont have any neg. to say about it.
Infact i may be bringing over another car here shortly be be painted by him
