I'm planing to pull out the carpeted panel that's attached to the bottom of the dash, trace it out on a piece of 1/4" MDF, and attach the horns to that. I'm installing them as far back and to the outside as possible. I'm hoping to get them installed this coming weekend, if I do I'll post some pics.

Btw I don't know how much power your planning on the 6x9s, but the ones from ID (probably nearly identical) couldn't handle much power at all. Went through 3 sets before I gave up, the coil actually separated from the cone on all.


END TEMPLATE: bbcode_quote The battery will go in place of the stock battery in the same location with a plexiglass cover over it; either that or I might get a MOROSO battery box to go along with the Muscle Car theme. I'm not 100% sure on the amp rack but it'll probably end up in the spare tire well in a fiberglass tub.


I'm planning 200 Watts per driver paired with about 20 per horn. I know they can handle much more but that's plenty for me. The coil separating sounds like a glue issue, or possibly a leaky enclosure (an unsealed door for example). I know they can handle tons of power thermally, there are guys out there running 900 Watts to each driver. Thanks for the heads up, I'll be sure to check the coil/cone glue joint for good coverage.

Got the amp rack fab'd up today. The two smaller amps "float" above the bottom one. It will be mounted in the spare tire well.

Here's the latest pics. Subs should be here Friday, then we can get going on the baffle. 










Put these on over the weekend too:
