Default Audio build

I’ve gotten a little audio bug bite since I haven’t really done much since the mid 2000’s being the last real audio build and I wouldn’t really call this a competition system lol. So far I have done the front and yes of course the tweeters wire isn’t that long after the photo I ended up shorting it because I was test fitting ended up resoldered i had to dremel the tweet hole out just a smug bit and use some plastic weld so that the vibration from the road or sound wouldn’t move or fall.
front doors are skar T65
tweets are TWS-01 very minor adjustments
once I get a little more time I’ll post an update on the rear I’m sure I’ll will have to dremel the plastic.
I also have a 3d printed Double Din made the original one was 3d scanned and will be better fit and finished than the ones that I have saw so far. There also might be a chance of buying the 3d file so that you can print it as well.

It's coming along nicely.
While you have the panels off, you might want to reinforce the door pulls before they break.
Here's a post I did on that: LINK - Door pull reinforcement

great idea! I’m gonna rewrap them since the chrome stuff is flaking off. Might as well do this too.

Update. I had to take the panels a part again my OCD. I decided to run OFC 16g wire instead of using the factory wires ran all 4 corners. I have taken out the factory amp. Tomorrow I’ll be making a new bracket to mount the new amp to the factory location for a cleaner look. And not last but least ordered a Kenwood Excelon DDX9907XR and oh boy I can’t ever say that I’ve paid more than 4-500$ for a head unit but 1,200$ was a bit pricey. The ETA for my double din is about a week out. There might be an offering to sell these. It was 3d scanned so that it’s more accurate than the couple that float around on here..

It’s getting there. This is what my buddy has came up with after scanning my panels.
file is 65$
3d printed shipped 125$ within the United States.
should have my hands on the 3d printed version by next week
