Any updates on these?

 

Its been a while since I've heard anything. Any news?

 

Another month is coming to an end. Progress? Anything? A response?

 

I found a set of brackets identical to the ones on this post on ebay. They fit great. Kinda just got tired of wating on these. I'll try to find a link when I get back home

 

Yeah, my passenger side speaker just started fizzing on me yesterday. Looks like I'll be looking at the ebay ones.

 

I just said "screw it" and paid $30/pair (in addition to the regular installation fee) to have Custom Sounds install my speakers with custom brackets on the front (fronts are components), rear, and they made some nice grilles for the rear as well. I'll try and remember to take some pictures of the rear grilles soon. So it was $60/pair (30 for installation, 30 for custom brackets) for $120 total plus tax to not have to worry about it anymore. I'm quite pleased.

 

^ what size speakers did you install in the front? What do the custom brackets look like? Were they completely new units, or something fabbed onto the stock units?

also, anyone have pics of the eBay ones during/after install? I heard they don't fit that well out-of-the-box and some modification is needed to fit nicely?

 

re: the Ebay brackets - they fit great out of the box - just the spacer for the two raised portion attaching points,(attaching to the door that is), they need a larger spacer. That's it. I fit a 6.5" speaker in it.

 

I took the raised portion off for weight reduction

 

lol...really...how much does that weigh?

 

well it couldnt screw in cause of the wire loom.. so why not? It prob weighs about a couple fries

 

just take a **** before you race and lose the weight.

 

No the key is to have the weight reduction compound

 

 

so, are these available? I can't find them....

get them here. They look fantastic. I'm not in the states yet, but according to the guy i got the linkfrom his worked perfectly.

 

These look awesome, I'm buying a set. I will follow up with fitment.

 

thanks. i'd like to know how they fit as well. wish i was in the states to start installing everything.

 

Those look like they would fit the bill, I'm ordering a set for the front/rear.

 

those are the ones i got for the front and they worked perfect, i think you will only b able to use the rear brackets if you already had speakers there and not the usless map pockets.

 

Back from the dead.

Can you use the Bose enclosure with this adapter to still somewhat maintain a "sealed" effect?

 

So, I actually never got these and installed them. I bought a house and moved and started working on my house and the poor RX7 has been resting in the garage most of time occasionally being driven. The other day I was trying to listen to the radio and no doubt that my subwoofer is completely drowning out the mids and highs. I need to go ahead and install these and when I went to buy them I found all these photos on the seller's website so i figured I would post the link to the photos so everyone can see what installation looks like.

Awesome. That 94 Chaste white on that site is my car

 

It looks like you used the factory wiring with those new speakers, does it sound ok? I did the same and mine really dont sound very good, trying to figure out if the stock wiring is my problem or something else.

 

I have the Infinity Reference 6.5" on the factory wiring. Anything above sound lvl 22 on my head unit (kenwood), sounds like garbage. I'm not sure if it is the speakers or wiring either.
