I bought a set of speakers from best buy the other day, 6 1/2" up front and 4" as recomended by best buys computer kiosk thing in the car audio section. The fronts went in with out a problem but after trying to put in the rears I found that the factory speakers are mounted with 3 evenly spaced screws where as the aftermarket ones are mounted with 4 evenly spaced screws. I figured I would just return the rear and buy some that have 3 screw holes.

Well today I tried that only to find out that all the aftermarket 4 inch speakers have 4 screws to mount them. I asked the not-so-friendly best buy car audio kid what to do and he basically told me to make something myself to mount them.

So, I know I am not the first person to have this problem, how did you guys mount your rear door speakers? Is there some kind of 7 screw spacer/adapter deal I can buy so I can mount that to the door with 4 screws then screw my speaker into that?

 

this should help

You can also find those on ebay, $3.99 + $4.00 shipping

 

Do a search here..you can make yourself wood spacers that will allow you to install up to a 6" speaker there. I have 5 1/4 separates in mine.

Do a search on speaker template.
