Haha, not a glass n00bx, but I just don't like doing it. It takes too long and I'd rather rip out my dash instead of glassing.

Nick, you running the Tara Labs in there?

***Electrodynamic*** · 06-01-2008, 10:05 AM

Man, those are some nice RCA's. I'm running the Spectrum 3A's to my subwoofer amps and Spectrum 3A's to my mids amplifier. I've got some Spectrum 3A Y-splitters too.

I still have 5 full rolls of that stuff I bought 5 years ago. Excellent for making your own RCAs. Check out that guys other auctions and he should have some StreetWires Zero Point RCA ends that fit perfectly over the Tiff wire.

I made the grills today for the fronts. I thought about doing the fiberglass and grill cloth, but that was going to be a bitch after I tore the grills down and I saw how hard it was going to be to get the glass flat. So I just wrapped the hogged out grills with grill cloth. I'll see if it will show up good at night...

Here is what I started out with:
Grills
Grill cloth
Black Fiberglass

And a close up shot of the glass:

Here's after I hogged out the grills using a Dremel tool:

And the finished product (nothing glamorous, but it allows the clearance I need and it looks a LOT better than the stockers.

Shock Top!
