Rear Door Speaker Relocation

Post by impalaplt »

Has anyone found an "OFF THE SHELF" Bracket that will work in that lower portion of the door to mount a speaker?

Or, are people just fabricating something out of MDF or Plywood or something else.....

I think that location is the best place to relocate the speaker, I'm just trying to find a way to securely mount the speakers....

I've tried to search, and haven't found any good solutions...

There's another thread from Dec 23 that addresses this situation you need to look into. This user can 3D-print custom mounts and has relocated his speakers.

I'm well aware of that post, and I tried to PM that person a month ago, and I haven't heard back from them.....

I'm sure "LIFE" has reared it's ugly head.....

I did "CHAT" with Crutchfield today, and they have 12 inch plastic speaker mounting squares that I'm going to try.....

This is what I ordered from Crutchfield.....

Hopefully this will work for the door. Then I'll just cut a circle in the lower door panel for the speaker grills.....

If anyone is looking for the OEM-speaker relocation grill, then PM me. I can print and ship the parts to you.
See this for details on install:

Looking back at this and knowing how much space behind the door panel I actually had, I could have positioned these to the left better.
