I think those grills are made by Monacor in Italy and look exactly the same as the grills I used to update mine with new speakers. I made up custom aluminium plates (5mm thick) to mount the new speakers and grills to.



As for vinyl cleaning I find Autoglym vinyl cleaner and protector works really well, use a microfibre cloth.

Easily lasts a month...maybe more. It also cleans when you apply it.

Here's another great 'find' on chemical front: Flitz Suitable for use on a number of surfaces, I'm not sure what is in it, but the performance of this polish just amazed me. Here's the before and after shots of my 18 year old Speedline Alessio 3-piece wheels.

Picked it up the local hardware store! I'd heard about it, but had never used it. Blew me away!

Can you please tell me the outside diameter of each of those speaker bezels. I have been able to source the larger one which has an internal diameter of 4" and an outside diamater of 5.6", but I cant find a matching smaller bezel with an outside diameter of 4".

Cool find on the speaker grills. they are hard to find. Mine were split, and I used the micro drill procedure to mount a small metal tab, then glue back together. Worked great, but not an easy fix... These grills look pretty good.
