Quick radio speaker Question ??

Ok, forgive my ignorance in advance. I have a 72 blazer and am attempting to install an original speaker/bracket. From the illustrations I have the speaker sits in the bracket, facing upwards. It looks like a very tight fit between the speaker and the top of the dash. Also, how is the speaker heard since there is no grille ? I hope I am making sense.

Speaker

I don't know about Blazers but P/U's have a grille in the dash between the defrost vents. I just figured the Blazer would have the same.

And yes there is very little room, even less if you have A\C. I have found the best way to work up there is to take out the glove box.

No grille on my blazer.....I think I may be trying to use a truck set up. I think I saw a pic some time ago and the blazer set up hung under the dash beneath the heater control. I just found the pic.....It looks like I bought all the wrong parts.
