just picked up the amp to power the doors
does any1 know where to buy these little gold screws to screw in the speaker with?
also the american bass 6.5s came with no instructions/wires of any kind so i need to pick up some wire to attach to the terminals (picture 2) where do you purchase these for the low?

I would highly advise soldering the wires to the speakers. Make a bundle somewhere and use a set of bullet quick disconnects there.

ill probly just end up soldering the wires to them, i didnt even think to do that. derr
also the speakers dont have any kind of labeling as to which side is positive and which is negative. both are 3/16". ive heard about connecting it to a AA battery but theres still a small possibility to damage the speaker. any other ways to find this out?

What speakers have the same ends?
Run a phase test with them hooked up.
I can email you the test if need be.

Im with Grim.
What your about to do is create yourself one hell of a nightmare.
The work involved in sanding that bish out will kill a person. Your gonna have to glass the hole thing to. If you think just the pod area you are wrong. Unless you find a way to attached it with fasteners.
Mine looked good for most the summer. Until the glass broke free from the door panel...

how are you getting around the problem of the window? it comes down right where speaker 2 and 3 are?
the fiberglass forums have a thread on an interesting way to glass TNUT fasterners into the mold, so you can bolt it into place.

yep ur gonna have to glass the entire panel, and ontop of that, you will probably have to invert the speakers and then it will be very uncomfortable for the passengers in your car, judging by the amount that the baffleboard sticks out from the panel.
