I really like stealth installs so I try to fit my audio upgrades into the original holes and try to use the same grills. Only issue I have now is that with the new amp the 6.5 speakers vibrate against the stock speaker covers.

I would like either a pair of stock round 6.5" speaker covers I can use to make spacers or the mounting kit for the MBQuarts.

Anyone have a pair to sell. I have all kinds of leftover audio parts to trade, too.

Are you sure they are hitting the covers. I have the same setup and if you push them too hard they will distort but mine don't come close to hitting the grills.

I mounted mine with Dynamat and fiberglass insulation behind them which helped direct the lower frequencies outward.

I will check I might have the mounting hardware but not sure if it will help.

PO cutout the area behind the 6.5 speaker and I could hear the road noise. Yuk. I filled it with spray foam insulation. No road noise.

There is no issue with the covers removed. So, I assume the issue is cover related. FWIW, I can push the MBQuarts to full volume and a reasonable amount of gain and get zero distortion. I think the rubber ring is coming into contact with the cover and getting the metal grate to virate.

The MBQuart part I really need is the speaker mounting ring that the speaker actually attaches to. I have one of them. And a couple of extending rings would help.

TIA

It has been a while since i did my installation but IIRC i had to modify the ring to make it work without vibration. I will check my parts bin tonight and see if I have the part you need.
