A Pillar Speakers??
So. Haven't visited here in a while, issues with the charging system have been fixed for those who were following my carpc project, anyway I've been driving my Mazda a lot lately, and I'm just not happy with the level of volume the stereo currently has to offer, I was thinking about making some molded pods in the A pillars, but was curious to see if anyone has seen/done anything larger then a tweeter mounted in there, [Not looking for low end just to clarify, thats a planned project I already have in mind for a later date] I'd love to see some a pillar pod pictures of anything up to a 6.5" driver just to get some visual ideas before I make something funky looking on an impulse lol.

Yeah, I dont want any bunkity "supertweeters" as i like to listen to music, as opposed to terrible shrill radiating out of those things without the presence of a crossover, so.. not happening...ever..., I just dont have the want to make kick panel pods, of add anything onto the doors, I dont drive this truck all that much, but when i do, i like to have some loud beats, and the 4 5x7's just arent up to par with the level i'd like. I played around with a 5.25 I had laying around yesterday, its actually a lot bigger then i expected to be lol, so .. I'm leaning towards two 4" coaxials in each pilar, with the grilles I think it will look ok with out looking tooo out of place, and the polk's im looking at are only about 90 or so bucks for 4, cant really beat that.

Look around Bing's site.

Dude does sick work. I have begun to strive to do all finished work as clean and well though out as his. Unbelievable stuff in there.

Planning and patience are your best friends when it comes to making outstanding work, you can accomplish a lot with a very little, and I like to show that in all of my builds. but those setups are absolutely ballin, out of curiosity, have you by chance seen my netbook build thread floating around here?
It will be nice to get back into it now that all the little "issues" have been situated.

Yeah, it was kind of just a chance of opportunity, broke the laptop to the point it wasnt good anymore as a laptop, had the truck.. had a free weekend lol, it wouldn't be good for everyone but I have a carpc in each of my trucks, just my hobby i guess and it lets me keep all my nerdcore shenanigans in one place, plus.. it just cool haha.
