not updated for a while so here is wot i have been up to

 

i took dash vent out and carefully cut out holes for 13cm speakers, re worked the venting under the dash so its still sealed, have not trimmed the dash or anything so its not 100% mint but still looks good i think!

new rear speakers fitted and sub box finished with new amplifier cos old one was not really making the new sub move enough, lol

passanger seat has been spaced forward around half an inch to give the sub room to move also
