Wanted: Dash speaker bracket, driver side


Recommended Posts

Pulled the dash cap to replace instrument panel lights and found the drivers side speaker attached to a small "L" bracket with just one screw!

Does anyone have  the correct driver side bracket?

Would a Chevelle bracket be the same?

Tip: You guys probably know this, but after retreiving 3 of the dash cap clips, I secured all 6 with Gorilla tape!

Post a picture of what you have. You should have a bracket the mounts to the cowl with two screws and a small bracket that mounts to that and screws to the cluster. 

All that was in there was a simple hardware store L bracket with i screw holding the speaker in place. I did a search and I see what the left mount looks like.

Found one for $50, I think I can fabricate something myself......

Chevelle uses the same brackets. There is a set on eBay now. 

Yeah, I saw those. I'll fabricate something before I pay that amount.

I'm not cheap, just value driven!  😉

So I discovered the missing bracket as I was replacing the dash bulbs with LED's.

As usual stuff happens and I popped that tiny glass fuse, and of course I didn't have one on hand.

I was close to finishing the bulb replacement, so it was time for some temporary improvisation.... 🤔

Do you have any of the tiny brackets as extras?  

It is not hard to fabricate that small bracket if some one will send the dimensions to you

I know. I have one on the 71. Also 1 in the pile of junk that came out of the 70. So I’m good on a sample.
