Factory door speakers

Post by Jsimon »

Can you tell me if these speakers are factory or added later?

My doors need some work on the bottoms inside and out. Trying to decide to look for better ones or repair these. If the speakers are factory I'll probably try to repair these.

Yep.....that's factory! Those speaker grilles are the same as 1969-70 mustang and are reproduced it you want to replace them.........I'm not exactly sure how rare an option that was but I've never seen a bump with them in it....... :wink:

You are very lucky to have that factory radio and speaker set up, as mentioned above I've never seen one on one of our trucks. Here is a Fordification information sheet that has a picture of the factory am/fm radio and speaker set up, it is on page 2.
http://www.fordification.com/tech/67-72ID_01.htm There is also a operating manual here, go to the Albums on the left side of the page, then scroll down till you get to 1972 Ford AM/FM stereo radio operating manual. Click on the each page to enlarge them. http://www.fordification.com/library/in ... tegory/230

Could you post a pic of that? I installed door speakers in mine and don't like how I had to run the wires - the factory way has gotta be better......

Doors are off right now but these should help

The grommet on the wire goes in the hole circled in this picture

The wire is routed in the cab next to the door jam wire where the arrow is
