That's good then, one problem solved. Sealed response on the JBL looks nice and flat. (I know thats an averaged curve, but still)

If I go with this custom option I plan on procuring quality connection terminals and pop them in the box instead of the local wire terminals these boys use. |
Those terminals are too fancy. You can get good ones from MX for far far cheaper. The one in the pic is a bi-wire cup, you need just two terminals (the sub is a SVC, right?). More money saved, credit to damping account.

Oh yeah, pods are good for kick-panels. Shoo them outta your car.

The baffle in the picture will not be required in your case. You will need a speaker ring with the exact sized speaker-sized cut-out. He has used the 'baffle' as a speaker adapter, I suppose, since the hole is larger (or irregular than the actual mounting diameter of the speaker. In your case, you are making the hole, not filling up one, so make it of the right size to begin with.
By sealing, I meant that the edges of the door panel be lined with a sealant to avoid air from the door coming into the cabin. Of course the speaker edge should be sealed too, to avoid front/ back wave cancellations.

One things for sure... with the amount of questions Im badgering everyone with for just the install... you can imagine what the scene will be like when I get to fine tuning the sound  |
We wish you luck with that. With a good pair of ears, and knowing what you're looking for, it shouldn't be as hard as you make it out to be.
