Hi Zeta

Here are some photos of the mount. I used aluminum from a local home repair store. I bent up on a bench vice anf used roll pins to hold thing togeater. The final version will be painted. Very solid set-up...

Wow that's some mounting.

The speaker you have WILL fit behind your ac controls!! And still sounds great that is were mine is.....

I have the 8800 and the face fit in the tray where you put your mount the rest of the unit is under the seat.
