That’s a brilliant use of space, well done—looks like crossovers for all four doors? By mids, you mean woofers? Morel makes a 3 way as well. Very cool location for rear tweets.

That will make for some amazing sound! I’m curious to know how you route wires for the front doors.
 
head unit in........mock up on the console.....next up is pull the switch out and wire to the pre-wired relay box.

ABSOLUTELY well worth the coin just sitting in the shop. When they state "fully adjustable", man, they aren't kidding. Ultra comfy and very well built...Scheel Mann seats, heated with arm rest, switch housing to mount in console.

How do you like that Planted seat base? How easy was/is it to adapt your new selection of seats? I am thinking of replacing my fronts for some WRX seat and was looking at the Planted seat base.
seems very well made, pricey for what it is but thats the way it is. I would think this is an easy adaption process to mate to a variety of seat base footprints. Given the amount of surface area there is to work with, i'd bet you will only need holes drilled to mount the Subaru seats, for the most part, they are all with an inch or two..
 
7/8" shaft, 2.5" body and definitely stout. I hope they perform as good as planned.

After exhausting search on the interweb....I found this 3d printed piece for you tweeters in the door sail. It was from solvefunction.com Ordered on a Monday, printed on a Tuesday, shipped on a Wednesday, arrived on Friday and installed on a Saturday. Pretty neat little addition for those looking to locate yer highs in a perfect little spot. Not to in your face, but nicely tucked away. I have seen others fab one up, but looked a bit too bulbous for my taste. These are very very nicely made and stout, and very fair priced. I DO NOT know this outfit, merely an end user. Morel tweeter NOT included with tweeter pods

So first up is a Prinsu Roof Rack, simple and clean. 3/4" space between the factory roof ribs. Very nice powder coating and a good tight fit. The gutter hardware is a bit light duty for my taste, but I havent seen a rtt on the side of the highway ...yet.
I went ahead and bought a roll of gasket material for the base of the rail to protect the gutters and reduce any shift or noise associated with metal on metal.
The oem roof rack holes will be filled with bonded washers, silicone and stainless bolts.

Where did you get the gasket material for the gutters and also the caps for the hold down bolt ends? Never mind I found it further in your thread.

That is a pretty amazing solution. Nice work. Hard to tell with picture sequence—are the three bolts exposed at finish?
Not enough for me to notice

.....then got MRSA infection mid Feb........Dr said "cmon in, we'll irrigate the hand and then come back in 10 weeks and we can re do the surgery".....he said it with an encouraging grin......I got pretty depressed, leaving on wicked pain meds anticipating a depressing 3 month hiatus. Got the operation, now i'm 15 weeks out of the 3rd operation and just barely able to squeeze toothpaste on my toothbrush. but...I have my hand and after forging and fabricating steel my whole life, I consider myself very fortunate.
