Stycker...you should see some of his older work. I think it was a Peugot? IIRC he had ported enclosures in the doors and ran a tube through his pillars/sails for the window defroster. They were pretty involved! lol

I know it's on DIYMA somewhere. We don't have Peugeot here, and didn't have Alfa's when he built it. lol
It's been a minute since I've been on DIYMA.

Re: Mercedes C AMG 63 - Focal Utopia MW 3,5 pillars mde by LBaudio
heres a few pics of some final touches to the pillars - added Silent Coat damping material on back side of the pillar and covered it with fabrics, also a thin layer of Brax paste was added inside of panels - thin because there was almost no space due to needed magnet clearance. There were also added strips of neoprene to decouple insert from the pillar, Neoprene strip was added to the speaker ring too. everything packed up and ready to ship. Heres a last few pics:
