Anyone know if I can buy some spacers off the shelf which will fit the front doors off a MY95...Tried some but a bit too deep and door trim doesn't fit back on properly.

Thanks

John

I would simply make 'em ya self. I used 18mm MDF and used a Jig to reduce the top down to 6mm. Done. Sounds well solid, no vibration too.

Do a search on the forum, as I recall some guys had quite a lot of vibrations from the plastic ready made spacers.

agreed - I wouldn't use plastic. The autoacoustic ones are MDF.

Looks like they only make 18mm ones - might be too big. Sorry

Drop 'em a mail, they may be able to help?
