ROFL WDF.. Relax man..
Anyway for an easier solution, just go to a local car audio shop and buy some pre-made pods for speakers. They come in heaps of sizes and look alright too. My GF's brother bought some for his car and they look pretty good actually :) They're also covered in a vinyl (he got white), which looks good too :thumbsup:

Um yeah I got a tutorial thing i made up :P its pretty ok and it just plays on my newbiness as i had NO experience with the stuff and now The options of what i could do with it are limitless. A few guys on here have tried it and they havn't asked for more help, either its really confusing and SHIT or it was helpful :P I can email it to you if you want, no pictures or anything but You shouldn't need them... if you do I can attach pics of my sub boxes (i didn't take fotos of my pods as they were rear pods for my 6x9s and I had to make them in a couple of hours before a cruise, but the theory between them is there and the thing i wrote should help.

The only problem with that theo $$$ I saw em at autobarn and coz i'd never buy something i can make unless its cheaper, i dont know how much they are worth but HOLLY CRAP. $149 for something that'd cost $50 to make a pair off or 70ish to make 2 pair In what ever shape or style you want... not to mention it fits your door a treat and you could put a side pocket thing on there too.
If your intimidated about ****ing up and loosing the $50 just buy em... it is WAY easy...
