Dennis gave me a speaker box and I'm just thinking... | | | | | Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 591 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Jan 2000 Posts: 591 | I used the speaker (2 speakers) from Chevy Duty that were made to fit in the overhead speaker console. Works fine. I also put two more in the "boot" panels. | | | | | Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 467 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Sep 2002 Posts: 467 | Well..there ya go..I did not know they were for sale. you are happy with the sound?
No holes needed to be cut in the inner roof?
Thanks Donsz.

I found the sound to be a bit "tinny" on just the speakers in the stock location. Adding a pair of 6x9s in the cab corners, along with some fine tuning, really helped the sound quality.
