Door Build Progress

Been a bit of a quiet week with Big Black begin at A1 Audio Designs for Paul Richardson to work his magic.  This weekend was spent clearing the mess we have created over the past few weeks from the back garden - during which I found the carpet for the Shogun which we gave a scrubbing - came up good

But I didn't find the trim pieces I thought I had kept to make the boot build so with the help of Si7 from www.pocuk.com I was able to get most of the bits i need

Its going to make Paul's life a lot easier when it comes to blending the rear build into the side and back of the box/Shogun.

Talking of Paul - he has been working on the doors and boot door amp rack and has been keeping me updated with pics and progress.

His first day on the project he was working out clearances and finalising speaker location - the original plan was for a triangle of mids at the front of the door but with clearance issues it was decided that we should look to spread the 3 mids out along the bottom of the door but this caused another problem with the window not coming down far enough but Paul spaced out the window mech and now it works a treat - The sign of good workmanship - coming across a problem then coming to me with different ways to solve it - any way here are a few pics of the work so far

Door panels cut

Here you can see the clearance made available by paul's mod to the window mech - Very tight!

The final design of the door builds

And the finished article ready to be trimmed in matt black vinyl with allen head bolts as feature pieces

I pick the Shogun up on Friday Night - so will get pics up of the finished work ASAP - i cant wait to see it all done.

Saturday its off to see dumdum to get the alts fitted - the alt bracket is cut and he just needs to see about locating a tensioner as well as moving the air box - I will also make a start on the power cabling as I believe my Shuriken Batteries arrive on their slow boat from the states tomorrow!

The next few weeks are going to be very VERY busy
