different 3 speaker grills?
« on: June 03, 2008 - 10:48:54 PM »
Tried to find the thread we had of the difference in the three speaker grills, but no luck.
I had previously got a set of unknown origin off Ebay for the barracuda, and am now looking for a set for the challenger. Since I have a 70 what do I need to look for. I don't know what the ones I bought before were, but I had to tweak them to get the curve just right. If they were later models and all it takes is a little bending to fit a 70 then I don't have a problem. here's my old thread with the speaker pics being put on the barracuda.

Voltage, but you can fit anything in there just as well. No sense in having a blank gauge pod.
I bypassed the factory amp meter since they are so old and can be a fire hazard from heat buildup.

For 1970, the outer speaker grilles have a B for Barracuda or a J for Challenger cast ito the back side.

The ones I put on the 70 cuda dash were cast BL on the backside. Maybe I got lucky and bought 70 cuda grills just by luck.
