Pretty impressive. There's almost more loudspeaker than door! While you were at it, did you add puddle lights? Or perhaps puddle LEDs to withstand those loudspeakers.  | | | | | 09-07-2005, 08:00 PM | #3 | | TRETEN IRGENDEINES ESELS Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: Rhode Island Posts: 3,687 |

Puddle lights are lights on the underside of the doors or outside mirrors that light up the ground where you step out. That mad modder in Connecticut added them to his other car. They look pretty cool. I have a set of lights and electrical junctions ready and waiting so that I can add them to my car the moment I find some excuse to take apart the doors. | | | | | 09-07-2005, 11:32 PM | #6 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2004 Location: state college, pa Posts: 3,431 |

ya, i used a combo of glass and MDF to get she shape/ hardness. took quite some time, but it was worth it. | | | | | 09-14-2005, 05:24 AM | #9 | | Senior Member Join Date: May 2004 Posts: 411 |
I don't like how it looks near the glass or the door pull. Something is missing. Also, what do you grab to close? | | | | | 09-14-2005, 05:53 AM | #10 | | Senior Member Join Date: Aug 2003 Location: cary, nc Posts: 2,259 |
