replacement door speaker filler/horn

[RoyV101621]

Matt M. & LuisV, I picked up an i-simple interface so that I can use my cell phone as music source. I'm waiting on the perfect power switch.
.
In the mean time, I'm swapping out the door speakers. Behind the 6-1/2" speaker grill is a 1" gap then a 5-1/2" speaker. The interior panel held away from the inner door structure. I mounted a horn on the 5-1/2" speaker to direct the sound in to the cabin instead of in to the door. See picture. You'll never guess what the horn is made from-a Home Depot $4 plunger cut to size.

If I were to do this again, I would mount a 6-1/2" speaker to the interior panel and place the filler behind the speaker.

That's basically what I did. I created a spacer ring which allows for pretty much flush mounting of the speaker. However, the initial reason for using a spacer ring was the depth of the woofer basket. Without the ring it would hit the glass in the door...

Nice, now that's innovation. A toilet plunger. And in all honesty, it looks great.
