Rings for the tweeters mounted
Stretched with grill cloth, resined, layered up with fiberglass cloth, body worked, and mixture of filler/resin poured into the pod to make it more solid.

You know you're in to car audio when you're trying to figure out what kind of speaker that is in the upper left corner.
It took me a minute. lol

I want to add cup holders but the E brake handle was in the way so out it went. I made a void in the sub enclosure by glassing over a 4" pvc and added an actuator.

If your state has inspections you may want to re-think or look into that as the handbrake has to be manually mechanically operated in some places (many with inspections)

I don't have no stinkin' inspections.

We have no stinkin' inspections in Cali either

Of all thestates, I'd expect cali to be the strictest. I'll be damned.

I will be continuing the E30 theme into the door panels. I picked up some E30 window regulator motors and interior door grab handles/armrests. I took apart some new VW regulators and mated the E30 motors to them. The power windows are operating perfect.
I grafted the door handle mounting points to the door. I still have much more metal work to do to the doors.
Started on a trim panel/center console.

This is coming along nicely. I've always liked those VWs.
