I hadn't read all of the pages in this thread until now and stuck 3 215mm rings together last night lol oh well, will try and adapt them somehow.

When you rewired door speakers did you find enough space in the grommet from a-post to door for the cable?!

I'm looking to rebuild the bulkhead out of mdf to allow 2 jl audio TW1 12s. Didn't fancy the plastic or cutting up the bulkhead!!

The cable for the tweeters are the easy part! :-)
The cables for the mid-range in the doors was a pain in the ass! :-)

Great write up and lovely speaker rings!
You really need some sound proofing such as Dynamat or Roadkill. It will stop all your rattles and make it sound 100% better :D
