Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Frank,

Have you received your kit yet? if you have any questions on install, please let me know.

I have 2 left in stock and currently out of speakers. waiting for a new batch of speakers and material to arrive to restock everything. Thanks again for all the great feedback and install pictures.

Steve,

I'm re tooling to do a large run. Do you have a specific size hole you want? I will do one with the hole size you want. if it works with my speakers then I will do them all the same. If not I can sell you the one off.

I haven't gone to the USA yet ( I am waiting on a few more parts to arrive at my US Address in Ogdensburg. In the mean time I am busy getting a lot of small jobs done ,installing glass,wiring harnesses. I will let you know when I get the plate installed.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Hi Kyle,

I will get a measurement today after work and PM you.

Thanks!

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Kyle,

The holes would be 3.890" instead of 4"

Thanks, Steve

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Got it. I will see what I can do for you. CNC mill makes things a little easier to change the design.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Cool, thanks Kyle!

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Hey Kyle,

Just a thought, If it helps me to get the speaker plate any sooner, I am happy to pre-pay for it.

Thanks,
Steve

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

I thought I replied to this but apparently not.

I should have material for the new batch tomorrow then I can get going on them. Ill keep you posted. no pre order needed.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Eagerly awaiting! Thanks Kyle!

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Hey Kyle,

Any progress on the speaker mounts?

Thanks.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Steve,

Im really shooting to have the new design production run done and ready to ship the end of next week. looking at the schedule it takes #1 priority Tuesday morning. Im new to the CNC world so the learning curve has been a little steep causing some delays. But we are making progress.

Kyle

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

That's good news! Thanks for the update Kyle.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Hi Kyle, still on schedule for delivery? Thanks.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Steve,

If you want to order one I will be hand making yours like I did the older version. The CNC guy and I arent seeing eye to eye on the design so its been pushed back again. Thursday I ordered the correct part for my machine to cut the inner circle to your spec. Or really really close to. Tomorrow I will be making a small hand run batch to fill orders until the CNC batch is done.

Kyle

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Hi Kyle,
Sounds good, but I have one question. How will your "Hand made" ones be different from the CNC made ones? Any difference in quality?
If not, I'll take one.

Thanks!

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

there is no difference in quality. All the materials are the same, the end product looks the same its just how its manufactured. Right now I cut blanks place them in a precision cut jig, drill and route everything by hand. The CNC is just going to speed up that process.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Ok, sounds good then. Thanks Kyle, I am looking forward to getting it.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Just ordered mine! Thanks Kyle.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Steve,

I'm Sorry I could not meet your spec. I really wish I could have done it better. If you dont get one built by the time the CNC guy and I get back in line, yours will be the first off the machine. Until then, I will continue to build the old design for customers.

Kyle

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Thanks Kyle, I appreciate that.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Finally back making these the original way. All the machinist around here cant seem to grasp the isea or dont want to mess with 100-200 pieces. so back to making them out of my jig.

I did make a change making them 1" narrower so now the outside diameter is 6"x10" I have a good stack built and ready to ship and will be coming in sunday to finish the blanks I have cut.

In stock and ready to ship. Fredstruckparts.com

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

Well I was doing some work under the dash looked up and noticed my speaker holder has fallen down. Not sure why but has anyone else had an issue?
Trying to figure out if I want to use the same stuff to remount it.
I don't imagine it's going to be real easy to get the old stuff off the bottom of the dash.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

do you remember how big of a bead you used? and also how clean were both surfaces? Yours will be the first known case of the speaker plate coming off. I would like to help find a solution to this issue. please let me know what I can do to help.

Re: Prototype center speaker holder
 

I dont remember how big it was. I used windex to clean the surfaces and then an alcohol pad for final prep. I also let it sit for a few days before removing the zip ties and mounting the speakers.
If this is the only one you have herd of I will use the same stuff and try to get some more on it this time. For now I will just blame it on Trump.:lol::haha::lol::haha:
