Great work Dave! sorry, haven't been on here much lately but goo to see your cappi is still moving ahead in leaps and bounds
Out of curiosity why are you having multiple terminal cups, for the look or the way you are going to wire it up afterwards? |

Hi Sneaza, I just spent the whole evening browsing through all the articles (instead of working on my car ) and as everyone I'm very, very impressed by your craftmanship. Congratulations on an incredible job. Your creativity and quality of work is an inspiration and I hope the restoration of my Cappuccino will be half as good. Thanks for the insight and the ideas. |

Bit of an update...Finally decided on the Speaker and Tweet Placement..........
This is just a 'MOCK UP' and you wont notice the Pods and bar when finished.... |

Close up.....The bar the Pods are sitting on is actually made from Aluminium Flat Bar and Copper tube (Had left Overs) Covered in fibreglass....This will act as a kind of strut brace. Though the whole Enclosure does that anyway....It all mounts at the Seat Belt Connections. The Speaker Cable runs through this from Amp to Speakers...same for Tweets.......HIDDEN CABLES... Though the Tweet Bar will remain Chrome, The rest will be Painted to match rest of interior .....NO, IT WONT LOOK LIKE THIS WHEN IT'S FINISHED..... |

Will it look like this when it's finished??
LOL
Just abit worried as it's rather large??
interesting design though with the chrome bar..it's one of those. Only when it's mounted in the car can we see it too fully appreciate the finished product...?
You need to make a video too of it pumping he he
and you should join these! ha ha

LOL...........At present the Pods look skeletal...but have yet to have the 'Skin' attached..... and it's actually smaller in design than the one Currently in my car....The Original.....
The Pods sit same height as the Seat Headrests. Interesting site.... |

Because these are pushed from the rear, had to enlarge the hole to fit, especially as they will be on an angle.......you'll see.... |
