I thought I was going to have more to post here, but for an error on my part 
Anyone need some Hi-Performance 6 X 9s or 6 1/2 speakers? http://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum6/HTML/056517.html
Because of that small error, everything is still sitting as-is. I meant to have new speakers in place, but that will have to wait for now. I got another idea to distract me, putting touch-sensitive radio controls into the stock steering wheel. I don't want to loose the stock wheel, but would like to use the steering wheel controls that are available for my Cd-player.
Will post more info/fabrication as it develops  [This message has been edited by Xanth (edited 05-11-2008).]

Putting these in right now:
Have Kenwood 4X6s to put in the rear as well. I was originally going to do something a bit more fancy with plate speakers, but decided against it. I need more mid-low range sound, which the plates I had were incapable of providing. I'm selling the pair of Infinity 6412cfp speakers in the mall.
My current rear speakers have also started rattling like crazy, got them for free though so I got my money's worth out of them

Here's how I'm doing the covers:
Starting at one side I used a razor blade to press the cover in place and tap it quickly with a soldering iron. I did this only along the sides, this makes it easy to get the cover tight on the frame. I'll be using adhesive to finish the corners.

Great write-up so far. I really appreciate you adding the video because now I can hear what to expect with my subwoofer upgrade. Good looking speaker recovering too.

The video really doesn't do the subwoofer justice, especially now that I have the Aura Bass Shakers installed. The sound is very impressive for such small components.
Here's how the speaker grills turned out:

That did sound real good. Do you have any more sound bytes or videos? I was thinking I would have to get a pretty big setup, but I like how this worked out, so I' might do this instead. Free bump too  . Awesome job

Just wondering what you thought about the sound quality of these speakers. These are the 4x10's in the dash correct?
Do you hear any distortion at higher volume levels at all?
I ended up replacing my Kenwood 4x10's with some Alpine 4x6's which seem to play clearer, though not as low at the 4x10's.
I am planning on a subwoofer to help out on the lows and just wanted someone else's opinion on the 4x10s...[This message has been edited by 1988holleyformula (edited 08-26-2009).]
