began enlarging 6.5 hole. used a dremel cutting wheel. make slits on the sides, and bent the tabs back. after massaging it with a hammer, it welcomed the new jl with no problems. the jl doesn't hit the back wall. the taps kinda gave it a litte bit of a spacer.

had to cut off bottom grille holder on the panel and on the grille

the panel doesn't touch the surround of the speaker. close, but not touching.

grille replaced with inside liner removed.

and sound?

**oneBADDz** · 07-05-2006, 11:20 AM

just looks like it would hit with virtually any travel

sounds pretty good. but would sound a lot better with a real amp. right now everything is still stock.

wow, impressive. Yeah, i wanna know what it sounds like with some real power-prolly gonna bounce against your grill

yeah you would definitely need a new grill...

plus I'm surprised that those 8" subs have a shallower mounting-depth than the eu-700s... interesting
