Sounds like it would have been super easy with an extra set of hands. It came out very good. That radio looks so original too! Good job all the way around. Thanks for posting the results.

 

No, they are actually still in the packaging in which they arrived. Never even opened them to look at them. I had read somewhere that they are just cheap speakers, so I knew I wouldn't be happy with them.

 

Well.....depends on whose hands. my wife tried to help me, but she didn't really understand where the liner was supposed to go, as far as around the edges. Once we got it in place, she was having a hard time holding it there until I drilled the holes and got the screw in. The sticks I cut worked out better. They never got tired, and didn't move or shake :-)

 

im sure they are bottom of the line speakers. you made the right choice.

 

@Fleetwood271 How did you wire the speakers? Since you technically dont have a "front-left, front-right, rear-left, rear-right?" My '72 has the same headliner (although missing speakers and trim) and I'm wondering what the best way to wire them would be.

 

Originally I wired the two center speakers as front and the two outer speakers as rear.

Later I added two underseat speakers which were larger. I then rewired them as rear and wired all four of the ones in the headliner as front.
