  • Damn Door Speaker !

    :mad: I cant find these damn adapters for my 6.5 inch speakers anywhere online and can't find them at Crutchfield or Sounddomain . Is there anyway I can make them fit by using some thin wood and cutting a circle or what should I do ? Im getting tired of not having a door speaker in my car .Thanx guys !

    I didn't need to use an adapter, my Poineer 6.5's went right in.

          When you removed the factory speakers, there should still be a plastic housing/baffle left behind which is screwed to the door. Is it still there? That may be your problem if the plastic housing isn't there anymore.

            I have that , the problem is , there is a tweeter connected to it , that I disconnected . I think what Im ganna have to do is cut it out with a dremel tool with the bracket part that is holding it in . But the screw holes in the new speaker are different , there is 3 instead of 4 and I cant get them lined up with the holes on the bracket , Im wondering if I can drill new holes through that plastic , prabably not , I might try using the old metal speaker bracket and just cut the old magnet out ....

              Make new holes in the bracket like you said. Or just scrap the bracket completely and custom make your own out of 1/4" hardboard. (found at lowes or home depot). Its easy to do, all you need is the wood and a jig saw. Make the cutout for the speaker to sit in the wood then screw the entire wood/speaker assembly to the door.
