i mean you cant put 3 door in 5 door and you cant put 5 door in 3 door

oo right!.... i went to halford the other day and they wanted £70 for the pair!!... and i dont even know what size speakers they can hold... i think its 6.5"

not that bad really, when you find a set, they sell for upto 40 pounds then postage of about 10, so thats 50 pounds and there second hand and will take time to find a set, so 70 isnt too bad at all

if you say it like that!... that is kind of a fair price!!... i thought they go for much cheaper second hand!!... but its not much of a difference!

and the funny thing is... is that if you want to buy door pods for the mk2 punto its only like £30

bought the door pods for the sporting from fiat as i didnt wanna use the ones out the car incase i fecked it up

made baffle board to shape i wanted then used sticks of mdf to get the angles. secured with hot glue gun.

strecthed and stapled fleece over the structure.

applied fibreglass resin to fleece in thick layer to soakt he fleece allt he way through - left 24hrs to dry

then applyed cut strand matting + resin to the fleece. left to harden off, aplied another layer,left to dry and then another layer.

once hardened applied p38 and then shaped the p38 with a rzor thingy (special bodywork tool) and sanded to smooth/shape.

them skimmed all the pitted bits, and sanded

wet n dry'd it all

sprayed with filler primer, wet n dry'd again

need to check the fit now and cover them in something
