Kick panel speakers?

[ss dave]

I saw where someone fiberglassed a round 61/2 speaker into the kicker. The glass was necessary to keep the water out since it located in the space where the fender drained, the front portion of the kicker with the largest body panel opening. The drawback that I saw to this design was that the speaker was located in the forward portion of the kicker-to far underneath to achieve good sound/volume. I modified my after market kickers(cut openings for the 4X6) and will install the stereo today. I'll keep posted.
