Replacement Speaker
 

I bought a so-called replacement for the in-dash speaker for my '62. Not quite a bolt in....I could get it to fit, as the original has a square magnet that rides on a bracket that wedges up against front of dash rear.
Anyone run across this? I'm trying to find a solution short of drilling hole in my dash!

BTW, I ordered the stereo "replacement" speaker locally, but it looks almost identical to the one in LMC.

You can do what I did, cut out the old factory speaker and mount a pair of 4" round speakers to the old bracket, works great and sounds better.

How did they mount? Did they fit flush up against top of dash?

Here is what i did just cut out the old speaker and mounted 2 4 inch spekers and trimed the black plastic to fit in side the old speeker mount no drilling just mount under the dash and bolt to the raido :lol::metal::chevy::metal:

There you go, thats exactly what I did.

That looks really good. Unfortunately, my speaker setup is different. It all looks factory, has the rubber bumper on the mount and all, yet it's a 4x10, with a SQUARE magnet, the magnet fits through a square hole in the bracket. Weird deal. I think I'm going to manufacture something like yours. Thanks a lot for the pictures!

I believe that is typical of a '60-'63 speaker.
