    Got a 75 park avenue
    The speakers in front are mounted with a funky bracket
    New speakers don't fit
    I'm using old 8 track player anyways
    Where can I get my original speakers redone with new cones
    Also place that can servive my tape unit as its original

    Thanks
    I'll buy a set from them if they fit the dash and brackets


    QUOTE="gstewart, post: 3262639, member: 651"]speakers may still be available at GM dealer. try this site not to rebuild, but purchase new.

    I mounted a pair of 3 1/2" 8 ohm speakers on brackets under the dash for my am/fm 8 track player ( from a 1979 Camaro).

    Have a picture of the speakers you need?

    No pictures but I purchased them from ABC Warehouse in Southgate Mi. They were 8 ohm.

    I used a company called Jackson Speaker for my 68 Corvette restoration with good results.

    I called to purchase speakers from Turnswitch today. I had called a few months ago, but they didn't have them in stock then, and I wasn't sure what I needed at that point.

    Unfortunately, the owner died recently. Very sad, as I just spoke with him a few months ago, and he was so helpful in explaining what I needed.

    His daughter answered the phone today and said her brother may be taking over the speaker business, but I guess the radio conversion business won't exist anymore. She took my information and said she would reach out when they were able to do the orders.
