This is what will be mounted inside of the crossovertray.
It will be covered with carbon.

 

Some carbon parts are already clearcoated en ready to be installed .

 

These 2 alulinium plates will be used to guide the connectors from the crossover..


















The inside of the crossovertray is also covered in carbon .

 

I've bent 16 massive kopper tubes to connect the focal crossovers.






Then i made the screws shorter so that it all looks better.




The holes in the aluminium are equiped with LED holders. Now i have a good isolation between the the kopper and the aluminium.

 

at the end of every kopper tube i'm going to fasten some speakercable.


The aluminium part which will become the frontcover of the crossovertay has been chromed .



The aluminium parts which need to guide the kopper and the piece inbetween the carbon will also get chromed.
This will make it easier for me to keep everything clean in the future.

These alumium plates are made to be mounted on the side of the crossovertray.
The previous ones have been removed because they didn't completely fit the rest of the design.


De aluminium parts on the side of the crossovertray have been replaced so the they have the same look.
Attention to detail...
I've used the old router.



Afterwards it all got polished.

 

This is the complete set up, you can see that everything worked out pretty good.
It's not easy perfectly line up the 16 tubes, and the fact that the connectionpoints on the cross-over aren't even in a straight angle doens't make it easier.


The kopper connectors have been sanded and clearcoated

 

The aluminium parts which need to guide the kopper and the piece inbetween the carbon will also get chromed.
This will make it easier for me to keep everything clean in the future.

 

he you can see everything mounted in the car
this is the frontpiece of the crossovertray.

picture of everything opened. but i won't let ik open this much.
First i'll mount everything so that i can see what i'm going to do with it



the carbonworks...






This is the kevlar piece which will be mounted behind the aluminium on the side of the tray

 

I've modified the part used to hold the motor in to place.
I've made everything stronger


here you can see how everything works

 

As you may know, I was working on the front bumper.
Meanwhile the bumper has been painted and I’m really satisfied with the paintjob. I also took the opportunity to paint the sub-box.
So I had something to do while the paint on the bumper was drying.
First of all, I made all the copper shine, and put a layer of varnish over it.
Soldered the cables and put some shrinking tubes over them.

The alu plate where the copper gets through got chromed. So keeping it clean, won’t be an issue any more


This is the result of lots of thinking.



Here the carbonkevlar and the plexy cupola is on.


Almost like fishes in a goblet







I’m really satisfied with this in particular. Trying to get the copper right where it had to be, was a really big challenge.
Still a lot better then some ordinary cables, don’t you think?
