Big Jim Posted February 12, 2005 Share Posted February 12, 2005 I haven't figured out yet how to post pictures here. I probably need to cut the bracket down some to accept the larger magnet speaker. I seem to remember drilling the rivets out on the old speakers and using the angle pieces to mount the new speakers to the bracket so they will mount the same way. I saw a set of brackets on ebay for sale where one of them looked like the factory bracket but the other was a little different. Maybe for a later model and they had cut away some of it. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayIS...167815&rd=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Jim Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 I was finally able to get the drivers side speaker in after butchering the mounting bracket and manipulating the mounting ears But it is still right at the gauge cluster and printed circuit. Haven't installed the radio yet. I hope it will work ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 31, 2005 Share Posted March 31, 2005 Big Jim, I would suggest insulating around the speaker magnet to avoid any contact with the dash light circuit on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
