Front speaker pods?

I realize this is probably the wrong folder, but could someone please tell me what I need to do to make 6.5" speakers fit in the door of my 94SE w/ Bose. I know of some pods for sale on this forum if someone can point me in the right direction.....Search function not working....Thanks

How much are you looking to spend because for $32(using paypal) you can have an .org member send you a set of pods that are done really nicely. That reminds me to tell him I need some, when I get the rest of my car maintanced. His user is James92SE. His profile site is here

You mentioned that you made your own....I am pretty handy at making stuff. I don't suppose you could tell me what it involves to make a set?

a board of MDF, jig saw, drill, and those sanding bits really help. some time, patience and a solid head.

oh yeah, and a pencil and paper help in making templates.

Cardboard works nice for templates

I made my own too,replicating the plastic pods using layers of plywood.Spent a lot of time making them.For 32 bucks I think I'd forego making some again.

I'm skeered..his interior is exactly like mine..but..2 years newer..now I'm gonna have to get creative to make mine look better..pfft..

I think once my "must get" list gets a little shorter, I think I'm going to have to buy a set of those pods..the snow has hit and I can't make my own templates
