Question

I'm interested in comments about the types of spacer used to fit larger spkrs in front of my MY02. Alpine HU has nearly finished off the std spkrs now.

Should I try to build my own out of MDF or do the Vauxhall Corsa plastic ones work well?

Nigel - Don't use plastic! It'll cause more problems than you have at the moment!
Get a bit of MDF and a jigsaw - they don't have to be perfect, as you're not going to see them. If you've got some room for an angle - this might give you some ideas:







OK, those were kick panels, but you get the idea!

Apologies for this tiny picture, but this is all you really want to do:

I mutilated the existing pods and chucked a piece of 12mm MDF on the front of 'em in my old install - Chrome's now using them

Might try and put more effort into the next one. Will have a look to see how hard it will be to make a few up whilst I'm doing one...
