Default Needing some rear speaker pics

I'm wanting to make a set of wooden rear speaker mounts for my 79, my problem is I don't have any originals. I got a set of brackets, just don't have the actual flat speaker mounts so I don't know the exact shape to work in. I'm planning on fabbing up a set of oak panels to mount a set of rear speakers in. If anyone has done a close item or has a pic of the flat cover with approx measurements I would greatly appreciate it. I've googled it and cannot find any good pics or measurements. Thx

I've got a set of rear speaker covers and mounting brackets off of my '81. I cut the center sections out of the speaker covers to allow a taller tweeter. The right mounting bracket is good the left one will work but has been slightly altered. These should help you make a acceptable speaker enclosure. I'll pm you some pics if you are interested.

You can have all of it for free. Just pay shipping to your destination.

I went with one of these. I left the sub out and covered that hole with a matching door and now I have more storage.
