Default A short update

So the tin work jumped with a start but has slowed to actually getting bits finished. But there has been some progress.

Bought stereo gear to support the fit up. The 6 x 9's were an easy fit into the boot. Their location will help support hearing the music as being close to the ears. The hole at the lower passenger rear wall was an attempt to get a small sub-woofer to fit but the chassis is precluding this. Under seat might become an option later.



Also bought some small splits that allowed me to locate and fit the woofer into the passenger kick panel I'm still fabricating. Some tweeters will be positioned into the outer ends of the dash.



The speaker has been mounted onto a removable panel to allow quick access to the diagnostic plug I'd located behind on the window stanchion frame. Similarly the box I've drawn further forward on this kick panel will also become an access point for the ECU located there.

I need to add some bent segments to make the top of the panel, that is hidden in this photo, a continuous panel for the trimmer to work to, I will include a couple of cut outs to mount foot well LED's and then somehow blend the overlap between the sill and front panels and I can then say the passenger side is done.

The drivers side will be a little easier as I'll have a speaker and LED's to mount but have no hindrances from the window stanchion forward to the firewall.

Mind you the next two weekends are totally lost to family and other commitments so it will be slow going after work when I can get to it.

Enjoy
