anyone know where to source 165mm front speaker adapters for a clk W209, tried to fit new speakers today with the supplied adaptors, completely different shape - fits all model clk's says the audio shop expert! - yeah right.

Most audio sites seem to list clk 97-present with no model number.

thanks

You can always make some yourself if you are handy with the jigsaw!

I looked at the plastic speaker adaptor rings from the likes of Autoleads and Maystar and didn't think much of them - ended up making some out of MDF and fibreglass! :)

What size speakers did your car originally have, and what size are you trying to fit? Many aftermarket speakers will have a large magnet that needs spacing correctly or it will catch on the window mechanism!

Cheers,

Will
 
I just used the old mouldings fromt he stock speakers and it worked fine, I also fitted 6x9's in rear as I'm working on custom mids and tweeter install from the rear.
