Dazza's Maintenance Thread
dazza:
@th3_f15t no problem mate will take some pics and notes when i do the other side.
One step forward and two steps back as usual. I know many people are running these speakers. @Shoduchi @xjay1337
But the mid does not fit. Ive trimmed down the mounting ring on the door card. I can probably pop the door card on but there is a lot of pressure on the door card. I doubt the cap that goes behind the mid will go back on.
Surely it cannot be good sound wise if the mid is touching the inner skin.
Thanks again guys. Any help would be appreciated.
Shoduchi:
I've asked my expert friend his opinion about this problem.
From what I've read in this DIY: http://www.golfmkv.com/forums/showthread.php?t=184416, there's no problem with the speakers touching the inner door skin.
When my friend gets back to me, I'll inform you what he thinks about this.

Although i think the mid is too big. i carried this afternoon.
Cut the foam and stuck the crossover with industrial velcro.
Soldered cable to speakers and ran and secured all the wires.
Added anderson power pole connectors so i can plug things in easily.
I'm going to hook it up to the stock wires for now. Any ideas what wires are the + - from head unit.

Seems your well under way with this already. I have the HSK 163 kit and the mid is the HL70. Much smaller unit

This is a much better direct fit.
I think because you went for the "L" version the speakers are much bigger and deeper.

Thanks mate! So as usual i make things harder for my self by buying the wrong speakers.
If i buy a smaller hertz mid will it work ok with the crossover?
I'm going to attempt and get everything back to together switching out a speaker or even all the speakers would be easy now that all the hard work it done.
