The build sheet on my 57 Fireflite convertible shows option group 1 which includes a rear seat speaker. Was one really available in the convertible? I can't see where one would have been.

Still investigating though because it looks like there is another speaker wire spliced in by the dash speaker. The radio in my car is a 919 which says has a built in receptacle for the rear seat speaker.

I'm going to have the search finder radio converted to AM/FM bluetooth so if mine was supposed to have a speaker in the back I'd start the search for parts.

According to the 1957 data book: no.

No rear speaker available for either the Fireflite or Firedome convertible. Also not available on station wagons. The search tune radio was an option on them all, however.
