Couple more pics. The drivers are mounted on a baffle to help visualize. Always a compromise with one thing or another. Stage vs width, height vs depth.

Strange question. Does anyone have a Tesla model s With this type of console? I’m looking for dimensions for the opening the sliding door covers. Trying to find out if I can modify it for the truck to mount an iPad mini behind to hide behind the sliding door.

I'll ask Scott Brazelton
