Front door speaker components?


Recommended Posts

Anyone have any pictures of the stock front door speaker hardware/brackets/etc in the later '80s GL? It looks like the PO of my wagon ditched everything when he half-assed his install, all that's left in my door is metal. No brackets, no moisture shield, nothing.

Haven't looked at one in the junk yard yet as it's raining on and off today.

 

I know you can just mount speakers to the plastic panel, but I'm trying to keep the speakers inside the door panel mounted properly for somewhat better sound quality (I'm not sure, but putting them on the outside might make them sound crappy).

I have both L&R door shields & the speakers with the mounting brackets for an 85 gl. Send a PM & we'll get them to you for USPS flat rate if you like. The speakers in them are Boston 4 ohm, 20W nom, 4.25".

Here's the pass door:

Thanks for the offer, but I went to the pick'n'pull today and lucked out--the '89 3 door there had rings, that were factory but different from the ones you show. They were black plastic, and actually fit 6 1/2" speakers with no modification! Also grabbed the near-pristine moisture shields from the same car.

The 3 door has different doors than the wagon... the plastic shield will not likely fit your wagon doors. The wagon doors are shorter by several inches...
