There are speakers in the side card at the B pillar. They are about 100mm and have a square housing.
Has anybody found a current replacement for these?

They could be replaced with a slightly larger round design but we would like to maintain the original 'look' for our customer.

Thanks

That looks good. will check the dimensions on Monday.
A round one would probably look OK but the existing square ones have left imprints in the vinyl trim so have either got to match that or go larger.

Many thanks
Steve

I added a 4 speaker basic head unit and went with replacement 4" or 5" speakers in the rear and replacement (upgraded) MX-5 speakers in the headrest as front speakers. No need for perforated leather/vinyl although that might help. I did a write up which I can PM if interested. Grady

Thanks.
The car has no radio at present but has had body off chassis refurb and a full respray so we are now putting back all the trim. One speaker is missing so the primary job is just to fill the hole. Ideally with a square speaker to stay in keeping with the original and to cover the square imprint in the vinyl.
