Heya peoples its been a while since i have dropped by, but i thought that all you GQ and Mav-GQ owners would like to know this..
As I am sure most of you are aware finding speakers to fit the front doors (without spacers) is a pain in the you know what. By pure chance a mate of mine who has a Mav-GQ ( no power windows ) bought a set of sony speakers that were on special @ repco for $19 they fit in the doors without spacers into the original mount holes. I have a GQ with power windows and hence have all the underlying plastic under the arm rest , I bought a set as well as my originals were ...stuffed years ago.
if you have a non power window model they fit perfectly, if you have power windows and all the plastic crap, all you have to do is add a 5-6 mm worth of washers onto the screws so the space the speaker cone away from the door skin backing panel. you cant even tell as the button clips that hold the skin on work fine even with the spacing.
here is the model number for those that are interested..
SONY XS-GTF-1627
their 190 watt peak (40 watt rated ) 2way speakers.. we got them from repco for $19.
they maybe not good enough for the younger folk that want the DUFF DUFF sound but for us old farts that just want tunes they do a great job
hope this helps...
cheers MOJO
