Anyone know a cheap source for these (under 200$)

 

Nope. The Q-Logic pods are the only ones that I'm aware of in terms of pre-fabricated pieces. Custom made kicks are going to run you at least double that price. Here are the ones that I built for my IROC:

I used to have the q-forms, but sold them since they took up so much room and i wear a size 13 shoe. They werent built all the solidly either. IMHO, i would get customs built or try to use some stock BOSE kickpanels.

There can be only one!!

 

I have built some pods for one of my T/A's, but they were built for the doors instead of the kick panels.But the only drawback is if you have manual windows instead of power, because the pods go where the window cranks are in a manual window car.They sounded really good. I had a pair of Eclipse 6 1/2" components, and they rocked. I originally had them in a kickpanel pod from Q-logic, but they didn't sound as full as they did in the deeper pods that I built for the doors. So give this idea a try and see what you think. All it should cost you is the cost of the wood and material to cover it. You can also mold it with fiberglass and gelcoat it to match your car's interior. And unless you can work with either, then you'll have to pay for the labor to make the pods. But the door pods are very well worth it if they are done right.In fact, after I install my power window kit in my current powerless windowed RS,I am going to make another set of pods for the doors like I did in my T/A.If you have any ?'s, e-mail me at jakeever@yahoo.com and I'll E-mail you some pictures of it.

ADMRLAM- My scanner is down at the moment. As soon as I get it fixed, I will scan some pictures for you of those door pods. I may even see if my dad will let me borrow his so I can scan 'em for you guys.

The scoop on Q-forms is as follows:
They retail for $199/pair. As far as quality, they are not very sturday as far as material goes, but I've seen plenty of people take a Q-Form, add some fiberglass to the back (inside) to reinforce it, maybe some dynamat spray and even close off the back. Any or all of these are fairly inexpensive improvements that would still keep the price range under about $250-270 if you know how to fiberglass.

I personally prefer custom kick panels, but the Q-forms are definately a mid-budget alternative with a little creativity put into them
