Haven't decided on the clamps yet. I like the clamp the pods with, because it's a single clamp that holds both woofers and is well made aluminum. Waiting until I receive the pvc to decide. I will probably roll the dice, keep the clamps, and return the pods to Amazon for a full refund. Worst case I have to send the clamps back later. The Rockville support is utterly useless.

Better to overshoot the volume a bit than to undershoot if possible. In my experience, with non-internally tuned enclosures, too little volume always results in distortion just when I think it starts to sound good. Whereas every time I went a little to big, I was able to tune around any "laziness" I heard.
That being said, polyphil has always been a plus in my book whether the enclosure was too small or too large. It always helps lol.

Good call on poly fil. I'm also going to pick up some foam baffles and dynamat for the front doors.
speaking of front doors..........
i pulled the door cards off today. As you may know, my car has almost zero of the original trim. I'm already making new rear door cards out of king starboard... and now I'm thinking to do the fronts too. The front is a little more complicated because I need to retain the handle and speaker cutout. And a grab handle. Probably some sort of elbow rest. Kind of a fools errand, to replace something that is perfectly fine, but these door cards are literally the last standing interior trim besides the dash and console!
Any other tips tips if I go this route? E.g. Dynamat, baffles, etc? I'll have a blank slate. Maybe move the speaker higher in the door?
