so i've got a pair of eclipse 6x9's that i really wanna put in the rear doors of my 00' tahoe (newer body style). i really wanna make a pod for em but don't have any diagrams or experience with building pods. i don't want anything too fancy but it would be nice if i could get em in there. if anyones got any info that could help that'd be awesome
Making door pods for those cars is a breeze. You have 3 options. Use the existing speaker grill, making a mdf template shaped from the grill, or making a mold of the location where the speaker grill was at on the door out of fiberglass resin and chopped mat. So which way do you want to pursue? and yeah, if you don't plan on doing the fronts, maybe you should just stick them inside, behind the grill if you can.
true. the cost of making pods is going to cost a good amount of time and money. Selling the 6x9's and getting 6 1/2's would be less of a hassle and you can install them behind the grill. Less hassle, less money.
well i've already got focal 6 1/2 components in the front and i've got these eclipse sitting in my garage and want them in the rear door panels. i've got a sh!t load of fiberglassing stuff too from when a friend used it. plus i've heard it was easy to do in tahoes and want to do it myself. if its in the rear doors its not gonna matter if i make a few mistakes. but i'm about to go cut out some 6x9 door rings and i'll figure out some more what i'll do from there
