Did a search, the speakers listed were NLA, I know there's clearance issues with the big magnets of today's speakers.
Just wondering if anyone has done this lately and have a model number for a speaker that fits. I realize you have to trim to fit. The guy doesn't want pods, I asked, he wants something cheap that fits the stock housing. He just listens to news radio and baseball games. |

I seem to recall an old VW-Porsche Magazine project that mounted door speakers in a 914 behind perforated panels. I see no reason it wouldn't work given that it's not an uncommon speaker treatment. I suppose some audiophiles may scoff but I'll say it again, a 914 is not the place to expect audiophile sound. I think if you must have door speakers, this would be the most respectable way to do it.
