This is the hard part of the forum...people get great ideas and move on them, then you want to do it as well.

Can you clue us in on the plans for the door panels?

uhh it involes alot of money.. some components, some mdf, and some dampening.

I dunno though... I'm kind of tired of all the audio. the last 8 months of my life have revolved around car audio.

Is the sound deadener going to reflect water in the same way? Also, when the deadener comes into contact with water/moisture is it going to continue to stick? I also wanted to sound deaden the doors of my car but these few questions held me back. I ended up applying a small ammount only directly behind where the speaker is located.
yes, i completely took off the plastic liner on the door frame, and the cotton stuff on the door panel. the deadener will reflect water, it uses tar to stick to the metal. it sticks very well, i might add.

I have a solution to win a race agasint a big mean */C. Rig your speakers to rotate much like a harrier. Face them backwards and turn up the thumpage. Harness the power of sound to propel you to VICTORY!!!

I will just run you all over with my buddies pulling truck, 640 c.i. and then walk to the finish line!

Anywho, great setup you got there. Looks like it was REALLY well done.
