RE: Redneck Radios

[Steven Charette <stevec@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dennis,
	Outstanding!  I've been trying to come up with some kind of bracket
that would hold 2 4" speakers and fit in the dash - this is definitely
better.  

	Thanks for the heads up!

fyi

There are a couple of sources for speakers with dual voice coils that I have
found.  This allows a single speaker to be connected to a stereo receiver.
I am installing a 6"X9" in the frong and rear of my 63 SF.  
No idea how it sounds yet but I'm expecting it to be usable.

I was not going to cut the doors for speakers and didn't want two speakers
in the package tray.
