Hi Brian, hows the cab coming along?

It is at a stand still :banghead: I had to rebuild the pc, the motherboard died. I have to fix the sides like you did, paint and the first cab is done. Just got the G25 for the 2nd cab, have the pc. Just need to find a screen and do the shaft extension. Have to admit, this is coming out very nice. :cheers:

Thanks Brian.
I am envious of your shaft extension. looks like it will run true and stand up strength wise. I am considering ripping mine out and copying yours....

Thanks Vandale, I am jealous of your body work skills. You did a great job on those sides. Mine are in pretty tough shape also. I am going to have to copy how you did your seat.

Small update.
I ripped out the seat speakers as they were 8ohms. They are 3x5 inch oval and I cannot source these in NZ so I made a 3x5 plate and inserted a 3x3 4ohm speaker in it, didn't get any photos of that though. Installed both into the seat, sprayed the speaker mesh and reassembled. Also removed the original sega dash speakers and installed some fusion tweeters which I have wired in mono and run to the centre out put on the 5.1 amp. Extended all the speaker cables and ran them to the amp also. Installed the 5.1 driver and reduced the volume of the rears so all 6 speakers are normalised. Removed the sega sub from the seat and placed the sub and amp below here to allow the sound to travel through the seat for a better driving experience. Mounted the rubber floor mat and polished the stainless covers. Because I have not used the sega pedal box I may have to lay some more rubber mat below the pedals to prevent wear on the paint and also have the rubber mat flow nicer. Next step is to move the amp volume to a spot on the dash and install a neat dial for that and the bass adjustments.

I hope you have fans in the front and the back of that base. I had my pc in the same spot and it got pretty hot in there. Looking awesome!
