Hey guys,

i had some time off this weekend to decided to change my Accent's real parcel tray.
the orignal was in a bad shape due frequent removals and used to rattle a lot.

so here are the tools used + a 4X1 feet 3/4" MDF board -

the old tray -


the finished tray, the corners and the part which touched the back glass were all tapered for a proper fit. the size is very accurate so it fits in really tight.

and the final fix. i didn't wanna lose the brake light, so did some wood carving -

the tray is further tightened by 2 allen bolts(was looking for T-nuts but didn't get them in noida -

the entire bottom of the tray has two layers of high density dunlop sheets.


it sounds really nice, there is some vibration from the speaker grill. it needs a little adjustment, but it's not noticable.

apologies for the picture quality as it was dark.

are these speakers good? these are GTO936e, Sam any comments?

thanks!!

Bravo SS. Well done. I am sure there must have been a good improvement in the sound, looking at your (pathetic) OE tray.

Yes the GTO936e was a good speaker.

[saintsinner]

hey Sam, yes it sounds great. much deeper and clean!
the OE tray had seen 3 speaker changes.

Is this dunlop sheet any good?? i mean can i use it at other places (in the car) too?

Good job , how about some clear pics now.

very well done buddy

some more pictures i just took in daylight today.
i have a question here.
my HU and amp have an HPF filter (everyone does). do i really need to use it? when it is off, the speakers don't sound very clear at high volumes. maybe the bass destroys them?
also, the HU has 3 options - 50,80,125 and the amp just has on & off. what do they mean?

anyways, the pics -
look from outside -

Not as much as I like the other guy's 'custom' license plate!!

Very good DIY job, saint. That is very impressive work.

for the front speakers (6") 80Hz is ok for the rear speakers (6x9) you can even go as low as 50 Hz if you have a sub. if not run the rear speakers full range.
