Small Citroen 2 way

[Speedhunter]

Im doing fresh build for which Im undecided yet so this will be about my small weekend warrior. I will try my best to make decent flow out of this because there was 3 same cars and system was going from one to another with upgrades and changes.

Lets start:

OEM trunk cover was removed together with its clips after which existing holes were bored and sealed with paint. Than I put threaded rivet nuts and make trunk flor out of 15mm constrution BB plywood.

Paint strpes was actually from factory[emoji2369].

I forgot to ad that everything is done only by me, from drawings and fabrication to installation and upholstery except stitches.


Subwoofer box was initialy built out of BB and after which i transfer to MDF. MDF sounded more pleasant so I stick with it. Subwoofer is DLS Nordica 12i. Suede is real Italian stamped Alcantara.

OEM door speaker mounts are designed for 13cm/5.25" speakers so I needed to do custom baffles and make cutout in the doors. BB plywood baffles are fully epoxy coated to make them truelly waterproof.

Cutout is rust protected and painted

Dissassebled and cutted door trim for upholstery and fittment

Doors were fully CLD and CCF/OCF treated. Unfortunately i have only this picture:

Proceeding with custom door baffles;

Bolt types here were only for testing screw inserts and fittment, later I put allen bolts.

I wrapped it in a vinyl which is matched to door trim.

Finnished and assembled doors;

Pillars were made asymetrical. Angles of tweeters in such a way provided the best aucustical symmetry.

Cutting rings out of BB plywood; I would 3d print them but I was rushing....

Wrapped in Alcantara

XT30 connectors; because XT60 is exaggeration

Finnal picture is going to uploaded later in the build.....

 

[Speedhunter]

Not audio related but when I started with Alcantara thingy than I will finish.
I forgot how its called in english slang but we call it black roof/headliner...

B pillars wrapping

This picture of wrapping a C pillar is true example what takes to wrap true Alcantara which is NOT stretchable; not to mention glue but this is secret.

Headliner....ignore old sub box...

Small detail done along the way for handsfree microphone.

Finnal with A pillars. This one is acutally taken recently after 2 years.

I will bring this to the end with the headunit adapter. This car can only accept short 1 din headunits so this was my solution.

Thats it, a lot more was done but probably it would be too exhausting for me to upload. Hope you like it.

You have some mad skills. Thanks for sharing.

Nice work! Is that a Citroen Saxo? Looks clean from what I can see, must be well taken care of, the newest one of those has to be knocking on 20 years old.

I really like the pillar trimming in Alcantara, looks great.

The vinyl you used for the door pods, the graining looks very similar to the dash in my e46 that I want to make some speaker pods for, can you tell me where you purchased it from, thankyou.
