Trouble Maker
So I popped the panel off my 1994 FZJ-80's rear (third row) speakers and it looked like this:
I bought a set of Pioneer TS-T110 speakers. Tiny little guys but too big to fit the grill's circle thing. I couldn't get my new speakers to sit flush and get the grills back on. So I bought some plastic pipe strap.
Screwed the two bigger bronze screws through and sort of jammed the plastic strapping back with the speaker screwed onto it as well. Also, discarded the metal and plastic housings shown in the above picture; only used the speaker, headless bolt, and a nut. Used blue loctite because red is just jinxing yourself.
I know these are the least relevant speakers in the whole mix but at $24/pair I thought it was an okay upgrade since I'm switching out everything else and adding a sub.
Any opinions on ways I could have done this better? A little worried about the plastic straps eventually getting a little soggy. The speakers aren't aimed perfect, but I can live with that if they fit and don't look ghetto with the grills off.
