More Matt Kellett rear speaker frames

[DaveMcKenz]

Hi Guys,
I was inspired by a recent thread that does much the same thing I am doing. My old rear speakers were in pretty sad shape, and there were imprints of previous speaker grills on my rear shelf vinyl. I have no rear seat belts, so I elected to remove the rear shelf to work on it in my shop. I selected Rockfort Fosgate Punch 4 x 6 speakers. These are a little thicker than my old speakers, so I mounted them below the rear shelf. The old backing plates were removed for the shelf and were placed behind the speakers creating a sandwich with the grills on the outsides.

Donor grills came from generic 4 x 6 speaker covers:

I used a little epoxy and weighted the grills into position until it set



I enlarge the screw holes in the frames to 3/16" to accept the screws I had on hand ( no 8 or 4.2mm), 1 1/4" long.
You can see the rings supporting the speakers from behind:



From the exterior surface the speaker covers and grills.



It was a pleasure to deal with Matt, user name MattKellett. Cost was about $105 shipped. I ordered on Saturday and they're installed on Monday. Product is heavy duty and beautifully made, as many others have noted. Anyway one more vote for this source of a solution for a small nuisance problem for 3.2's.

Good luck,
Dave
