Folks I hate to sound like a broken record (or for you young guys, a skipping CD) but these brackets are top notch and worth the investment.

Re: 73-87 cab corner 6X9 speaker brackets - 2nd series

question. I bought some factory 4X10s thinking I might make them work (bad idea). i want some of these, but on the 4X10s, the brackets go up past the seat belts on my '77. will these 6X9 Brackets work on a 77 wit shoulder straps? if so I think i want some

I am currently making 67-72 brackets, and I have not had anyone say they could make the 73-87 brackets fit anything else.

Got mine today, these look great! Anything special I should do to clean them before painting?

I would lightly sand them to give them some tooth for the primer to bite, clean with a 50/50 ammonia/water mix, then prime and paint. Powdercoating would be ideal and the most durable...but a liitle more expensive.

Thank you for the feedback.

Yeah, 77 is the weird year...those mid mount retractors get in the way. If you want to run the brackets, you need to change out the seatbelts to the 78+ with the low mount retractors.
