So I decided to install my new speakers this past weekend. I got a great deal on some MB quart premium separates - 6.5 in front, 5.25 in the rear. The install went great. No problems at all. I raised a beer to salute my great work. After placing the beer down, I got in my car to back it out of the garage. Tunes blasting so loud that I could barely here the crunch of my drivers side door THAT I LEFT OPEN as I was backing out!

It is amazing how the brain works in its 40th year with 1/2 a beer.

The local repair shop is looking at it right now. I didn't do much body damage: 1 very small ding at the top edge of the door with chipped paint, broken window regulator and bent the window seal at the base of the window. The window got so misaligned that I could barely shut the door.

Man I'm sure glad I saved that $80. to install my own speakers. IAADA!
