next was the parcel shelf

Image

made a template out of cardboard for the shape then went to bunnings and got some 6 mm mdf

cut out the spacers for the rear speakers in 16mm MDF.

then got stuck into the custom glove box.. used a couple of the ideas had seen on here thru few other guys but made a template from the original glove box and made up a space for the cd player to go nicely. 8)

I kept the old glove box as well as the cardboard templates which i made up incase need to make one again down the track

made sure would have nuff room for the both n trial fitted it first, then continued on with the rest. Used liquid nails and air gun to stick together

Image

then gave it a lick of black paint and made sure the cd fit in.. :lol:

also made sure the speakers actually fit in too!

have now wired speakers and cd up just gotta run accesories, check to make sure it works real good then make door trims up
