Hopefully!
I love these and really appreciate the work that went into them. However, they're not for me (wrong color, I already have the HK system, visibility concerns, etc.)
I am curious about how you made them, though. Did you use existing pillar parts or was it all from scratch? What was the wiring like?

Also the HK system is dogshit compared to a proper DSP controlled amplified multi-way stereo. Pretty much any OEM stereo is horrible compared to a proper system. The most important thing for SQ is knowing how to tune a DSP and getting the speakers as far forward as possible, hence the A pillar pods.
The visibility concerns are minimal and the pros greatly out weigh the concerns.
The process was pretty simple, I pretty much followed the process shown on the Car Audio Fabrication youtube playlist. Fiberglass, body filler, sanding, paint.

For wiring, connected my phone straight to a DSP under the driver seat via USB, RCAs to a 5 channel amp behind the driver side rear interior panel, and speaker wires to the A pillars, doors and sub in the back. Power wire ran on the passenger side from the battery, distribution under the passenger seat as well. It was a full install with sound deadening and then the car got totaled from behind :(
