Dishtowel Dash Pods

So, since I know Dima is going to sneak over and take pictures of my latest masterful install and post them here, I thought I'd do a preemptive strike and post them for him

I've had no tunes for nearly a year and am in the midst of fiberglassing my A pillars, so in the meantime I'm playing with aiming and such with some JL 4" thingies on the dash.

These appear to be dish rags but are in fact "dollar store temporary enclosures" which very high on the SQ scale, and make these POS 4" ers pound.
(and yes, thats a tear in the passenger side one.)

Still way better than shitty MP3's on my Curve.

....sweet huh??....and when I'm done with the pillars, I can use this acoustically superior material to clean my dash and windshield. (stop laughing now Dima)

Really nice! I bet that JL will sound better in the dash then the Hybrid crap I see some people use.

No hate, we're both kidding, Fozzz knows Scott and I've never even heard a Hybrid speaker.

so you mean those mids in your doors now are not hybrid?


great pics Al, this would look like it's at home in spl type install with shitloads of wire, ductape on the box and all other funny things. too bad you are into that sq thing.




actually those mids sound damn decent for the unique and solid install they are in.

What I mean was, I've never heard a car with a Hybrid setup in, you know, all proper n stuff.
