Neon Seat Belts? OSHA Approved? 😊

They make adapters to retrofit more popular 6x9 speakers into the narrow rear package shelfs on G's, I can't believe how much they cost now though..LOL, I got mine like in the early 90's for like $15 for the pair, they work OK, but can be a little tight with the trunk lid springs.

$90, yikes!!

I’ve been on a bit of a DIY adventure lately, tackling the challenge of building my own package tray—and I’m pretty proud to say I nailed it on my first try! Sure, I could use some new brackets, but Dixie’s prices are sky-high, so I’m sticking with my homemade ones for now. I’ll upgrade them eventually, but for now, my focus has shifted to the front console speaker, a 4x10 beauty that’s captured in the photo. The whole process has been a blast, and I’m excited about how far I’ve come!

I like seeing custom touches like neon green seatbelts, that's cool stuff. I have questions as to why you'd want to keep a 4x10 speaker when they can't produce low frequencies and distort to all hell, but hey, if you're happy then the project is going well. Rock on and keep creating things.

That’s the old original. I’m putting a 300 watt kicker in the front. 4/10”. As I’m caping the dash. And I just felt that 2” thickness leaves me no choice till I get the dash out and go from there.

So 6/9” in the back one 4/10” in the front.
