If you want some good 6x9's that sound great, get some DC Gold's. I have 2 6x9's and 6 7's in my 32. They handle 150rms watts with no problem. I used to have 4 6x9's in my Pantera also.

Winter project:
I have the rear subs in. Redoing all upholster, building pods and installing the rest of the speakers. It will be done in time to start the new season.

I will post some pics of what I have done to keep moisture away from wood.
For the plywood front, will cut 1/2 in off the bottom and screw a 1/2" x 3/4" piece of plastic (acrylic) to the bottom edge with a couple relief slots so any water on the floor will run into the rear drains that are located under the bench seat.
I also raise the sub boxes off the floor 1/2" by screwing 1/2 x 1/2" plastic skids under the boxes.
Therefore, no wood is touching the floor.
Then I cover all the wood with carpet with rubber backing. Seems to hold up pretty good.
