Hi, does anyone make 6.5" adapters for the front doors of a classic? I know most people make them out of MDF/Plywood but from experience they eventually rot / become brittle.

I've seen places in the states that make them but looking to get some ASAP.

Thanks in advance

Only got 5.25" ones on ebay

It's listed on autoleads website but you can't buy directly off there site, I'll have a google round.

Do you know if that would work on a classic though?

After 9yrs my old mdf ones gave up and turned to mush making a new set out of MDF today for my 6.5" speakers. Remeber mate they gotta have a slop from 8mm to 18mm to ensure you don't hit the door cards.

Mine are mdf, been on eight years, two coats of Wickes quick drying primer, still fine

Ran out of MDF yesterday just managed to get one done.... This time they'll be painted

How'd you get it to slope like that? Fancy making me a pair? I'll pay obviously

JonMc

iTrader: (51)

The slope is a classic thing I presume

My first ones turned to mush so the new ones were painted. No slope required for the newage doors

Mine don't slope. Darms is just being a poseur......

You just need a steady hand ..... sorry mate, I just about finding the time to get mine done.

Yeap, dam classic door cards are shaped way too close ............. Is that Skinz Moisture guard in your doors? http://www.skinzsystem.co.uk/4.html - more details pls mate

^ LOL ..What can I say..........on this occasion size matters

Its the only way I could fit my speakers in guys, check the depth of my speakers


Should be picking up some more 25mm MDF tomorrow.

I'll have to try the corsa adapters then

JonMc

iTrader: (51)

No mate, just some old shoulder/elbow pads out of an old body armour shirt

Only fitted to ensure a snug fit between the MDF and the door

BTW, now wonder you need to slope it, I'm using 18mm MDF and it's fine but my speakers aren't that deep - plenty of spare MDF here if you want to double up or go for something thinner

JonMc

iTrader: (51)

If you can wait a week or so I can knock you a pair up but they will be flat and not sloped
