I've taken delivery of my RS door kits. I imagine I could have achieved the same weight lose by taking my shoes off before I drive....anyhoo. They look the nuts!!
I want to keep the split speakers in the door but from scrutiny of the many excellent threads about door furniture removal on this wealth of knowledge that is RL I cant find a solution for the placement of the speaker crossover box other than inside the door cavity, not an altogether dry place!
I guess I will have to waterproof them and velcro them in place without fouling the window motion?
Any clues from those DIY souls who have trodden this path before me?

Couple of choices..
You can either secure under the dash and run two sets of cables through to the door or secure inside the door itself ( I used silicone and held in place for 24 hrs). You could get moisture issues that way, whether you could seal the xover I'm not sure, I just stuck mine on the door. Place I put mine was just above the woofer speaker and towards the hinge of the door.

I'll do a before-and-after weight in to go with the install post. I'm not expecting more than a couple a K at the most (without ditching the speakers).
