Re: what you guys think of these door pods
Looks great! I've been trying to find time to fab up the same thing for mine. Nice to see how it looks in real life instead of just in my imagination. Good job.

Re: what you guys think of these door pods
Not bad. I like it. I have the crappy q-form kick panels. Not too happy about them. They get the job done but since they are universal from 82-92 they really don't fit 100%. I want to try something like what yo did with the fiber glass either in the kick panel area or the door.

Re: what you guys think of these door pods
those look good and original thinking but they protrude off of the door panel so far that it looks like they cut down your leg room even more. how do they fit with you sitting in the car?

Re: what you guys think of these door pods
those look good. I plan to do the exact same thing. But I'm going to cover them with carpet so they'll match the rest of the insert...

Re: what you guys think of these door pods
Very nice, similar to the ones I made for my car
Yours seem to stick out a little more than mine, but that could be the angle. I think this is by far the best solution for where to put speakers in the front of a third-gen

Re: what you guys think of these door pods
hey to answer some questions leg room is fine, it doesnt bother me at all, the color is a red matched as close as possible to my door panel and interior which is also red. they sound really well, its very directed sound and with the power im running in the rest of it i can hear the speaker super clear, even with the roofs off and going 110km/h down the highway.
