Re: BTW welcome to the forum!!!!! n/m Posted by mike on August 14, 2009, 3:47 pm, in reply to "BTW welcome to the forum!!!!! n/m" 206.246.4.65 Thanks for the welcome,I think i will probably go with 7 inch, with 3 1/2 back space on front and 8 inch with 4 inch back space on the back. This is still in the plannig stage, a few more cups of coffee and it could change agan. Be safe  Post a Response
