Speakers that fit with no mod to factory housings, $30 a pair, and here’s how I did it (post now works!) Options

[Garland]

I wanted to set of speakers in the factory pods, without hacking anything up, hoping for a little better sound than the 50-year-old paper, torn speakers.



Omega 4 x 6 dual cone BU-46.7 my local speaker store says you can still order them, if they’re out of stock.



They look good except for the bright gold medal that will be seen through the grill



Also, they ride too high in the housing due to not clearing the factory mounts



I marked, the speaker where they need to be trimmed, and with some help from the clippers, done.



Now they clear the posts, and Mount flush.



Here’s the view from the front side, that doesn’t look that great



So after cleaning the metal well, so paint will adhere.
