Got these last year for my Jeep Grand Cherokee. They were the perfect solution to add 3 1/2 midrange to the A pillars. They fit perfect. Sanded a little to paint matte to match A pillar. Extremely happy. Had aluminum pods made, but they stuck out way too much. These look and blend so much better and at a fraction of the cost of having something custom made. Didn't take too long to get either.

What a brilliant idea! I'm not crazy about the finish, or the exposed screw heads, but man there's a LOT of value in these! I think even just wrapping them in carpet of vinyl would be a major upgrade, and with the hardware exposed, it gives the option to showcase it with contrasting fasteners. Not a motif for everyone, but when you're working on a budget, turning limitations into features is a great way to make it work! I really like these from an entry-level DIY fabrication base, too. Maybe you're a bit adventurous, but not experienced yet? These are a phenomenal platform to play with. Cool stuff!

I got these for my truck. I like most, didn't want the exposed screws so I did have some body filler already so I filled the holes sanded and repainted, then got some industrial 2 sided tape and it works just fine. Also sprayed the inside of the pod with flex seal to deaden any strange vibrations that may happen.

@bugman72 2 жыл бұрын

I would highly recommend using some sound deadening on the back side of these pods. With them being made out of a fairly thin plastic, they WILL buzz and vibrate. A good layer of deadener on the inside of each pod should eliminate or at least greatly reduce the potential for unwanted vibration.

Absolutely, and the same for the door panel.

@BStreet666 2 жыл бұрын

Great review. I think these would be absolutely fantastic for older / classic vehicles, especially those with flat door panels. Though not perfect, they would be a HUGE time saver compared to making your own. You would also have a great place to start if you choose to create your own trim around them to hide hardware and seams.

@DIYAudioGuy 2 жыл бұрын

Totally agree!

@endall39 2 жыл бұрын

This is a really interesting product. I've made a lot of fabricated pods across time, and I would be more likely to use this as a shortcut to a custom panel. Even if it is going to be tacked on without integrating the upholstery, I think I would epoxy in the screws to make them studs, and then vinyl wrap to eliminate the exposed fasteners. I think the company should consider integrated studs on the face of the panel, and just have exposed screws in the jam. That would be a lot cleaner. Then you could just use spray vinyl dye to get the right color and matte finish to better integrate the panel. At least that's how I'd do it. Thanks for sharing this vid!

Customspeakerpods makes great products. I bought a set of 2x8 inch speaker pods and 3.5 inch a-pillar pods for my f250 and they look great. Of course I had to do some door panel trimming but it wasn't much of a stress. The plastic they are made of is pretty flimsy and light, but I solved that problem with some sound treatment/deadened. Even for their price, they're great. Spent about $300 for all the custom pods and another $400 for 4 8 inch mid woofers and a pair of 3.5.

All of the contours, the bends and the complex shapes, add strength. If you're worried about it try to avoid a style that has a lot of flat surface area. The universal pods, for example, are surprisingly sturdy.

Those look cool and all but your using a large driver that will handle some good bass and those pods are flemzy and will flex a whole lot and you will not only lose most of your bass but most likely will get rattling, one of my old time mentors used to say the best subwoofer box in the world would be made from solid concrete because then there is sure to be no flex lol.

Use the code DIYAG to get 10% off your purchase at www.customespeakerpods.com, when your order your pods you can specify the cut-out size so that they fit your speakers.

it is NEVER a good idea to mount speakers in the door cards themselves. way to flimsy. you'll get all kinds of vibrations and air leaks, not to mention the self cancellation gotten from the speakers moving the panels, not the air. i guess SPL folks might not care, but this is in NO WAY a good idea for SQ.

These aren't for everyone.

For 155 bucks they should at least be designed much better and to where screws aren't showing, I think it's definitely much better to make your own than to use these pre-made ones because they definitely look like shit

They have their drawbacks. The big problem with making you own is the time. Custom pods take forever and they are hard to get right.

But they are easy to install, that is the trade off.

Of course they don't have custom fits for Subaru. Nobody ever makes stuff for Subarus which is insane in my opinion. It is one of the most bought and modded cars in America.

You should reach out to them and see if they can make some. They are always looking to expand the product line.
