I thought I would post this up as It might help someone,'
Car this Tuturial is designed for: 1989 - 1995 Ca, Cb, Cc Lancer Hatch,
Tools and Stuff that you will need.. - Pair of Rear Speaker Covers/Plastic
- Dremel w/ Cutting Bit
- Fibreglass Matting and resin
- Pair of Speaker spaces in your size
- Body Filler
- Hot Glue Gun
- Assorted Gritts of Sandpaper
Precautions: Always use a mask when sanding fibreglass and the filler, Also wear eye protection when cutting the plastic!Steps - Remove the Speaker Grills/Plastic out of the car,

- Remove the Speaker grill out, you wont be needing this, Also this is when you grab your dremel and cut out all the plastic inside.

- Next Grab your speaker spacer and work out which angle you like the speaker to be on., This is where the Hot Glue Gun is used to hold the spacer in place with some off cut bits of wood that you might have (Note I also needed to cut the side out of the plastic for it to fit right)


- Next step, I covered it all in a stocking and secured it nice, then chucked on some fibreglass resin and matting.


- After thats dry (1-2hrs) I then gave it a quick sand with 80gritt and covered it with the first layer of Body filler


- Once I shaped the filler how I liked it, I covered it all in Primer Filler to cover all the lil Holes and screatchs. then sanded with 400gritt and Sprayed in 2pac white to match interior
- Final Pod

Need anymore help Just askme

total cost was about $20 as I had left over fibreglass, filler and paint from other projects but If you were to buy all items about $50ish
