yeah i've been wondering the same thind about dash inserts, how do you get the factory clips and junk to hold them in place?

cut them off the original piece and fiberglass them to it. i would imagine this being quite hard.

ive been reading the info i got from you guys over and over, lol but one thing im still a lil confused on and hope someone can help me out with is keeping the new fiberglass piece down. It shows how to make it and everything but once its done how to you keep it in place? Know what im saying? How do i keep it down so it wont move or fall when i make a turn something.


When I make the boxes for the back of my car im going to use L Brackets fiberglass them into a few layers so they are just sticking out of the bottom.

I've heard someone say velcro - bad idea. There are a lot of options. If you have any questions PM me.

I read your last post on that forum about using little squares or full sheets, and you'll want to use little squares.  That site is pretty cool and has some good information.

initally, as many large piece as you can work with is the best idea, once you have on solid layer it will be hard to lay bigger pieces on top of the old stuff in the corners and bends as such, so i usually work with smaller strips in the corners once ive got one establish layer.

After all this information I have a pretty good intake of how to do this. I'm going to work on a friends RX-7 this week. I'll post photos of the work and what to do. I'm going to make a pretty extensive how to (sorry NEVERSTOP) smile.gif on everything you'll need and need to know to make a subwoofer enclosure.
