It gets easier as you go. Sounds like you've got momentum. Go with it...

I had to just plain remove the infinity tweeters. Now I just dial-back the high end.

You know? While de-crud-ifiying today I realized...all four have rusty bottoms bleeding through the oem white paint. I saw a nickel-sized rust-hole in the driver's side floor and one door's got a brown pimple showing through on the outside.

...and my ol' lady (God bless her) wants some attention... G'nite y'all... .. just kidding!

Took it out for a nice casual cruise down country backroads, it was a beautiful day!

Think I found the birth place of the "hillbilly" farther out you go the crazier things you see!

I'm thinking about doing a door panel mod that will allow access to the speakers in the same fashion as the rear speakers.
