dumbstruck
I am truly dumbstruck. How on earth do I get the front door speaker grills off of my 93 GS? Do I have to remove the enitre door panel? And if so, how do I do that?? Thanks for any help.

Re: dumbstruck
u can make it out of anything man, u can use a thin sheet of mdf
Re: dumbstruck
the speaker is to deap, or to big around, or the holes don't line up?????????????
Re: dumbstruck
speaker is too small. I can only get one screw in. SO I guess I'll make a ring out of sheetmetal and extend the rim of the new speaker. Sound good to everyone? And bad opinions or better opinions? Thanks for all the help!

Re: dumbstruck

Glue and sawdust formed into boards.

Re: dumbstruck
only MDF is tons better and more solid than particle board. Particle board can leak air under extreme pressure and in some cases has been known to litteraly explode. MDF is much more solid and only a little more in price. This is why 75% of the boxes made for subwoofer enclosures is made of MDF.

Re: dumbstruck
My mistake, thinking of another type of board. I used MDF for my box as well and my rear speaker rings (adapters).
