Well I got a chance to visit the boat a couple weekends in a row and managed to get the new billit speaker grills installed as well as the foot rails. As always it's never that easy!!
The 10" subs were a piece of cake. The 6.5 ended up being a real pain. The speakers I had were brand new however the mounting ring would not fit over the back of the speaker due to design. So once again I ended up at Best buy and $250 later walked out with 4 more 6.5" speakers. So if anyone needs any speakers I'll make you a great deal!!!

The foot rails took a little time but were pretty much a slam dunk other than I still need to remove the cabin door to through bolt the drivers side to the helm. I failed to note the allen heads holding the top rail togeather.

Photo's are not the greatest due to poor lighting (they look more blue than purple) .

If anyone needs any speakers let me know. I have four 6" Sony explode 3 ways which were in the boat for 2 months.

Four 6.5" DB Audiobahn 2 way speakers that were used 1 time at the end of the year.I have 4 of these as well.

Any interest drop me an e-mail and I can get you more info.

Nice updates, come on summer of 07!

Looking good!

Where were you able to get the foot rests from?

Grand Products Ph (231) 798-7034
They were one of the past owners of PQ. I paid $100 for both including shipping.

Looks real nice Brian--You are a perfectionist and your boat shows it...why did you change out the speakers so soon? Anything wrong with them?

Thanks for the info.

PQ Baby. Nothing wrong other than me. I took out the original kenwoods fall of 05 and put in the Sony explode 3 ways. The following year I decided I wanted to get rid of Sony's due to they were red and really didn't match anything in the boat, So I bought 4 new DB 6.5 dia Audiobahns. By mistake I bought 6.5 and not 6.25 so I had to open up the holes a bit. Well I ordered the new billet grills and unfortunately the mounting rings would not fit over the rear shield. So off to Best Buy again!! So if anyone wants a good deal on speakers I can set you up. They are all pretty much brand new!!! Photo's available upon request.

Fast Forward,

The mods look good. I have had to remove the cabin door in a previous PQ and it was not fun at all.

Tim what size PQ did you have to remove the door?? It's tough to say just lookinh but it looks like mine will come right out. Anyone else ever remove there sliding door on the 26??
