Ok quick catchup here, I'm building my car to be a sound quality competition car.

Time to make you power heads crap your pants, today I added 13kg of weight to the car, using 36 square foot of sound deadening on the doors.

<div align='center'>
So out with the plastic door cover


2 Layers on the outside skin


and another 2 on the inside</div>

The doors now shut with such a nice clunk now like firm and solid smile.gif

So next I took the inside of the car apart to run some wiring

The signal wire goes from the speaker locations in the doors and a pillars through the dash to the center console

Then down the center console towards the back of the car.

Under the back seat secured nicely

Then came the utter pig of a job the 2awg power wire in from the engine bay through the wheel arch in through a gromit, through the original wiring box down the side of the car and under the back seat like the signal wire.

So stripped the car down again

and popped the earth cable in, protecting it where it may get chaffed by metal parts.

And yes 36 square foot / 13Kg more sound deadening went in

And of course finished it off by carpeting the boot as this may be seen in the future.

Good job! I bet road noise has been cut down by quite a bit too. What are you planning on putting in as far as subs and amps go?

LiDL

lot's of pioneer goodies, PRS Components and an ODR Sub, with a PRS A900 amp for the components and another (undecided) amp for the sub.

great job!! i always love quality work. if you buy a CF hood it will shake some of that weight off.

LiDL

cf? more money than I've got, it's a v6, there's plenty of power to take a couple of kg extra weight, and let's face it, I'm not a skinny bloke wink.gif

needs finishing, but the head unit surround is taking shape.
