Fiberglass Door Panels Pods - Video Step 6 Wrapping Vinyl and Suede

[@thejasond]

Mark, I'm an installer at a shop and I've never had any formal training on fiberglassing techniques. Long story short, we don't have anyone at the shop that's good at fiberglass work and by following your videos closely, I've successfully been able to complete fiberglass projects at my shop. My shop has tools I don't personally own, such as the router table, and just that one step alone has helped me take my installs to the next leve. Thank you for your dedication and your knowledge. Cheers!

[@stevenberry3496]

Black suede sets it off love the design. Contrast of colors is nice. Love the reverse mounting technique.

[@scrapingpavement]

All the natural tones look sweet, and I agree with taking your time it really makes a differance!

[@jeremyallbritton4219]

I'm actually an upholstery guy and I've been watching your new videos for a while now and I just started watching the older ones to see what I've missed and they're very informative as well!

[@turboman9286]

Just saying, that with your tutorials I am now very confident that ill be able to make door pods in my s10. Thanks for that.

[@nickcbass]

I'm building a Factory 5-33 Hot Rod.... VERY tight quarters for adding audio. Just this series alone has helped me think through some real issues I'm facing. You can bet I will be scouring your site for more info. JUST GREAT... Thank you!!!! Nick

[@Letmeplaycoach]

Man every time I watch the videos on the pods I change my mind on how I want mine to look. Thanks again for this great vids I wouldn't have any idea on how to even being to start without them. Keep them coming.

[@TheSoundDemon0101]

I think they look amazing, it's because of these videos that you do that I've purchased some equipment and actually made a set of component rings for the first time. I even had to chuckle a little bit when re-watching these videos because I realized I also purchased the same set of components you're using in the videos.

[@Des420]

Clean, understated. Detail touches enhancing the factory appearance without being gaudy. I like it. A lot.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Thank you, I do my best to make them easy to follow, and to show products that the average DIY’er can afford. Thanks for viewing and the rates and comments, I see on your channel you watch a lot of my videos, thanks man!

[@davidjaames9459]

man you are truely skilled. you may not have a shop but you definitely should. especially since you have over 15,000 of us following you on here. i know most of us would be coming to your shop if you had one.

[@ronjlwhite8058]

I needed this vid Mark!!! 7 years later and a very helpful series. About to wrap mine once the A-pillar/dash pods are done. Waiting on chop mat and SMD SunFlash!!!

[@Martin1519]

I think your door pods came out crazy clean. You make it look easy, if took me a few days to complete a pair of pods from start to finish but they came out clean thanks to your videos

[@artrilliance]

You asked for comments, so PLEASE take this as CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. I LOVE these doors and the designs. I don't care for the suede, but the vinyl looks really great. I also love the look of the mid-range, but the tweeter looks cheap for such an amazing, custom application. Thanks for your continuing motivation for custom installs!

[@infaredsinsor1]

This is quite possibly the best channel for custom car audio fab I have seen thus far!!! Keep'em comin!

[@TheComment555]

I've been doing fabrication for about 8 years now. I do most of my work on Trackor rigs, and 1 ton trucks. I got to hand it to you, you did a pretty good job. This job makes you look like a pro. Nice clean edges, no crinkles. Man this is a nice job. I might have you do my truck since I don't have the time.

[@mirodriguez888]

That looks really nice I just finished wrapping my box and side pieces. I would have never done that till I saw your videos

[@christargia7889]

this is one aspect of car audio that intimidates me and I have yet to make a custom panel. Thanks for making this video.

[@1dickycat]

After watching these last vids i am not afraid to try this on my car. A lot simpler than i thought they where.

[@nickbo9555]

very informative and educational. i have a '93 civic with some door panel "issues" and your videos have really motivated me to build my own custom inserts and panels. Thanks very much!

[@damonbarnett2258]

Your so talented and I am always amazed at your final fabrication projects overall quality n visual appeal. I’m inspired to start my interior project with full custom car stereo installation. I’ve been building and customizing every vehicle I’ve owned since I was 15 years old. Each one gets better and cleaner every time. But I’ve never stepped up my game to include the interior and electrical until I found your channel. I’m hooked and you’ve got my support here on out Mr Mark!

[@jimmietrain]

Honestly one of the coolest speaker instals i have ever seen. can't wait to see more videos!

[@bravomike09]

Well done! This video is now 6 years old. It's very interesting to see how your work has evolved over the years and the quality has improved. But the quality was very good in 2013. It is several degrees better now in 2019.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Thanks for the positivity! Doing my best to keep improving and sharing what I learn.

[@kellyhays6425]

Hey great job! I am finishing my Lambo Diablo dash door panels and console. We got shut down by Audi for manufacturing Replicas and this was a huge help. My upholstery guy died in the middle of the last car so this has been good fortune to find your video sir!

[@mnell356]

I have been loving the videos, I have redesigned mine 3 times and have just stopped till I have seen your finished product. Love them gives me a much better Idea for my 03 F150 Keep them coming. Nice Nice lay out looks even better than I was imagining.

[@tomschevette]

This videos have been what i was looking for clearly explained. Now i'm ready to try and make my door pods Thanks for the videos can't wait to see how you mount the panel

[@kyle3420]

Mark these have turned out better than I expected! And trust me, I expected them to be amazing. Keep up the good work my friend, I learn a ton with each video you make. One day ion my next build ill be using all the techniques you've shown us throughout the series. Have a good one bro, cheers!

[@allenregister4145]

What a great idea you’ve done such a great job and gotta tell you... you have made a huge success of your talent, so big thumbs up !!! But sharing this as you have is truly a gift you’re giving a lot of ppl who may have chosen this over bad life choices. Bravo!!!!

[@g0th1cazn]

Love the design, especially how you made them look as factory you much you can, but still have some unique look.

[@MrDarrellWhitledge]

This is by far the best channel that I have found for DIY you rock Sir!!!!

[@proshadowgamer7118]

I am happy you took the time to show us these things..you save all of us DIY.We love u !! and we r in your debt.

[@peterbronxsidetrack1238]

Even 6 years (nearly)on, your videos are excellent. Been trying to catch up with your work. All strength to you. Your workmanship is commendable. Ta, cheers, peter from Australia

[@letgethepartyon]

yes i think i will try to finish the door pod. i had started to make but i did not no where to go with them but now i do. i have watch all of the door pod vid that you have put up. I now no where to go with them thanks to you. ps: you are a very big help with car audio ideas and techniques thank you for all the help you have gave out to us

[@spazo088]

These look great. I have a love/hate relationship with these door pillar speakers I'm working on, and I've picked up a lot of construction tips on this entire series.

[@bigmark204]

Watched the series, you have given me the confidence to take the next step in my customization of my 2013 RAM1500 thank you. I will refer to you videos to complete my door panels.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

You are welcome, thanks for saying thank you, it keeps me going.

[@jasonflechsig4203]

Mark, I want to give you big thanks. I've been doing car audio as a hobby for almost 20 years and now I'm getting a little more serious about it. I am a cabinet builder and trim carpenter by trade. Thinking about opening a fabrication shop but I'm doing my truck first... It's a f350 diesel. Just started wiring and building a amp rack this past weekend. Getting really excited, but also want to take my time and do it perfect... To wrap things up... Big thanks to your videos they are really giving me those "tricks to the trade" that I needed to sharpen my skills. THANKS JFLEX

[@jerryinman6636]

Truly appreciate all of these videos....you break EVERY step down and make a daunting task manageable. Very much looking forward to trying out your process!

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Thanks for watching so many of them, I hope you are smashing like buttons!

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Just take your time and keep practicing and you will be there in no time!

[@mr.dpfaquariums4560]

seriously you really explained to me how making custom door panel can be done easily if you TAKE UR TIME...thank you so much

[@mrbigs63]

I dig how you were able to create a well styled pod and still retain the factory look.

[@Nskyline2005]

I think that they are very beautiful and professional. I watched all the videos all the way through, and the steps were very understandable, and your door pods were amazing.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Thank you! Appreciate you watching!

[@dragginballz4208]

thanks for giving me a better under standing on just what goes in to custom work. i can now appricate custom installs more now as it allows me to see just how much work goes into sum cars. thank you very much

[@JacobFrey]

Those are some sexy pods, Mark! I have never attempted this type of fabrication but I thoroughly enjoy the lessons. Being able to see how this is done, step-by-step, is so cool. I also like that your videos are focused on the task at hand. The small jokes go a long way and are just right (like Magma, and the "materials needed" lists). Always looking forward to the next vid!

[@jamestrapp3783]

im going to try to make door pods for my ranger with 3 way components. thanks Mark for taking your time to make these videos.

[@matmichalke5734]

I know this video is old but I just started watching your channel a couple years ago and I have to say, AMAZING JOB! They look so clean and really look like they belong and not a funky custom crap job

[@CarAudioFabrication]

There is a lot I could have done differently on this. Been learning over the years!

[@curtisking8543]

I'm truly inspired by your work. I especially got fired up when you did your dad's car. Him and I are around the same age. So I thought why not. I've a couple questions. I would love to get opinion on my build plan. You are truly a professional. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and skills.

[@johnnytighylips]

This turned out a lot cleaner than I was expecting when I saw your first video. Keep up the good work and thanks for the insperation

[@CarAudioFabrication]

I have not posted it there yet. Ill have to do so soon, good to see you guys are missing me! ;) Thanks for watching!

[@Malomex13]

I've watched all your videos including the door panel series and I have to say you do an amazing job with all the videos. You explain the steps very well and give me confidence to take up a project on my own. I've been sharing your videos and website to everyone I know that's into audio and fabrication and they all have nothing but great things to say. Thank you very much for sharing with us.... I'm Looking forward to learning more from you.....

[@psementalist]

[@SwordLords1234]

Those are some sexy door pods. I wish i was half that skilled in fabricating .

[@48884BB]

I don't like the design of the panels all too much, but you did a great job, they're very well built and your videos are by far the most helpfull ones on youtube.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Thank you! Appreciate that, keep watching, commenting, and liking, it really helps me out!

[@CarAudioFabrication]

No problem, thanks for saying thank you, it means a lot to me.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

[@MrBestwank]

I definitely like how it maintains the factory look. I've used alot of your tips and techniques on my most recent build and usually come to this channel when I'm having a bit of builders block myself. Always have great ideas

[@itsmewillieD]

Great videos. I look forward to more. Guys like you will keep custom car audio alive.

[@macleod1592]

[@renewolmarans4498]

Hey Mark thanks for the grate learning curve. It learning me alot as I'm already started on my ranger door panels a few months back I builded my own router table just to do all of your stencils ideas so that I can get my door panels and my sub inclusions done thanks 👍

[@3632js]

i really like your tutorials, your detail is on point, and explanations are great. i'm not a novice at fabrication, but i always learn something from each video. keep it up and you'll constantly grow

[@TheMrDuffie]

[@danielwright6133]

They are really good looking doors panels and I learned alot by watching these videos.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Haha thats an awesome compliment thank you! Glad you enjoyed it! Keep watching :)

[@Rios0590]

I really like the descriptions and how you explain each step.

[@401Impala]

Great series on door pods! Very intimidating, i shall give it a try in the coming few weeks. Thank You!

[@djmkrr]

Bro, door pods are so classy, like luxury style!

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Haha thank you! Appreciate the views!

[@fperric1]

Awesome video. I am going to try this. I think i may wrap the insert in a speaker grille cloth to hide speakers though. The techniques covered here are great. Thanks for taking the time to cover this in detail. Best video out there.

[@jaremi40]

Love your videos! I am just learning about fabrication, been researching for the past couple of months and I literally check youtube everyday waiting for more of your videos. I love the detailed descriptions!

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Thank you! I appreciate the views!

[@swankyification]

i think this has to be the most detailed video on door pods on KZbin

[@castilaw42]

So far all your vidz are very informing and easy to follow. And I love your work very neat and professional!

[@shaunaskelson5265]

Amazing pods, router techniques make these super simple

[@dragonback75]

Been watching all the videos on this building of the speaker pods and mount, glad i found it as just got my door panels off to start some builds on my car, excellent channel and i will be watching thanks and great work.

[@autoxtacy]

Great video series! Every step is easy to understand and implement. If I didn't have 3 other projects underway, I'd run out and start my door panels.

[@natederosier3193]

Bud u do a great job!! You also make it look so easy but we no that u have years of experience thanks for sharing

[@NicholasFaustDoty]

Your door pods look great. Very basic but pop all at the same time.

[@AvIaToRsMcGeE]

Really awesome job man. I was scared as heck trying to build pods for my 05 grand marquis but these video's have given me much confidence.

[@CarAudioFabrication]

I see that you watched all the videos in this series! I am glad it helped! Put those skills to work and send me some pictures on facebook! facebook.com/caraudiofabrication

[@AvIaToRsMcGeE]

Will do!

[@RussLyman]

those came out so sweet Mark. Love it. Makes me want to do some for my girls car since my are already fully fiberglass. Def need some help with the mounting aspect of them

[@onebadmonte32]

Long time subscriber/lurker here. This was my first series watching. Very informative, I enjoyed watching. I hope to tackle my own door pods now. Thanks. :)

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Nice! i see that you commented the keyword on every video! Good work. Be sure to show me your progress on facebook! Or instagram. facebook.com/caraudiofabrication or @caraudiofab

[@Rainelli03]

For lack of better words thank you. Youve helped me with so much fabrication. I follow all your vids and look forward to more. Ya da man. Keep do watcha doin. And also the door pods are lookin great. Thanks for the vids. Ya da man!

[@DaLocstah]

YOU DO VERY CLEAN INSTALLS AND FABRICATIONS. THANKS FOR YOUR VIDEOS...

[@YohanathanD]

Beautiful pods. I love keeping the look factory, and you're a pro

[@williamlwynneii2008]

Very sharp. I wish I had the tools and the ability to do this on my stuff. I injured my back in 2008 and since then even the simplest of car audio tasks takes me forever. I sure enjoy watching ya work though, just makes me long for the days when I too could do things.

[@codadb]

Bad ass pods! Its 3am but your videos are preventing me from sleep! But I honestly don't mind. Thanks for the info!

[@CarAudioFabrication]

Glad I kept you awake! Thanks for watching, tell your friends that love audio about my channel!

[@codadb]
