Nice looking speaker pods

lowlander · Apr 3rd 2018

I saw the pods in the attached pic on a Facebook SS forum. I think they look great, and do a nice job of hiding the side frame pipe. Pretty spendy though. I’m hoping their manufacturer comes up with a simple body panel that merely hides the pipe and flows down to the side body panel.

Those look great... looks like complete custom work or maybe one off. Very nice looking who ever did it.

I would be concerned with leg room. It appears to be almost touching the steering column trim and is blocking part of the seats.

Love the finished look. It would be a problem for me getting in and out getting 2nd leg over.

That was my comment. It looks amazing, but I would never be able to drive.

I sent a note to the guy who has them. Made by an outfit in Orlando. He said no issues about getting in or out, but I don’t know his size. I also had the concern as I am about 6’3”. But if it was molded tight to the pipe, and swooped down to the textured side panel, it shouldn’t affect access and egress. But I am talking about it being a body filler panel rather than a speaker pod. When I get home to NS I expect I will play with the concept.

He did say the driver seat couldn’t move ahead with that pod.

Did they happen to say the name of the company? maybe they could twik them to each persons taste or something. They do look nice.

Customslingshotaudio out of Dallas also does some interesting work...

Some pieces remind me of @lrobbis engine dress up, @Slingrazors 3P humpless rear inserts (they add speakers facing up? Probably not the best for sound direction...), and even those new front wing inserts/grills (different design that I like a little better)...
