Im about to get a quote on just front doors and the boot. It was estimated at like $900ish when i asked last time. DIY saves so much money but that's if you can be bothered.
well a bulck pack costs around 300.... it would do boot and doors... probly take 3 - 4 hours of your time.. can u justify paying 150 - 200 a hour to get it done?

Yeah but then again that's the same with professional car audio installs, just paying to get it right and done properly. I reckon i can get it down quite abit as im doing everything with them. When they quoted me 900ish yeh at the time im was thinking no, but if its around the 700 mark i most likely will do it.
Here're some pics of my custom (home) made tweeter holders:
Read alot of tutorials before attempting to do this being my first fibre glassing "project", but all turned well! The idea came from a post by DMX a while back, so thanks to DMX!
So in brief, steps involved are pretty simple: I took out the original plastic panel, wrapped it with cling wrap and two layers of foil paper then build fibre glass on it. This allowed me to make a duplicate of the original part (i.e I can keep the original panel and put it back on if things go wrong). Next step is to create the MDF ring and fix its position onto the fibre glass duplicate panel, then layer the fibre glass on it. Finally just sand it and put carpet on it using contact adhersive. Comments welcomed!

Thats very true.. i have had alot of experinace around audio and making cars nice and loud. just remember.. if there are gaps between the pieces or dynamat.. it wont work.. you will have wasted time and money.. if nessesary.. overlap the pieces. and keep the peices in as big a sections as u can. less joins the better.
