Hi all,

I'm after a speaker which fits behind the dash in a L-Bug. It looks like there are two small brackets on each side of the grill for it to mount into.

I'm from Camberwell, Victoria.

Cheers, TIm.

You could use any speaker that will fit in there

and glue it into place with silastic

I'm wondering why You want the speaker as all stereo systems these days need two speakers left and right..
at least...

there are holes in the doors for round speakers

Hi

You could always make a bracket to fit in the holes and bolt the speaker to that.

Hey guys, the problem is that the speaker is from an earlier model and doesn't fit in full stop. It's only an AM headset so there's no need for a lavish speaker system! Thanks for your thoughts anyway! Cheers.

its not a very large space for a speaker

measure the space

speakers are usually 4x6 inches oval

or 4 inches or 4 1/2 inches round

which would probably fit OK..
