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

Not sure how to post pics but send me a text message and I will take some pics with my phone, I used an air saw, it is a very easy mod to do. 7576359922

Yeah, 77's have the one-year-only mid mount seat belt retractors. I hope you knew this before your purchase, as I have this mentioned everywhere I have these posted.

Glad you got them to work however, thanks for the purchase.

Jeff, the brackets are outstanding and I hope this allows us with 77s to use and modify them to fit. Unfortunatly I did not see anything about the mid mount seat belt thing. But you have to adapt overcome and improvise! I sent pics to the other fella and I can send them to you, it was an easy fix. I would buy them again!

I want some of these! Will the factory wiring hook up to any 6x9? I want to redo everything but don't have time/money yet.

Yes, if you have 4x10's back there now, you can use the existing wiring for the new 6x9's, not a problem.

I'm going to check the seat belt retractor in my 78 tonight, if it is the right one I'll probably place an order soon.

Waddell? If so, yes, they went out earlier in the week. Due to the shipping cost, they went parcel which takes a couple days longer.

Thanks for the purchase!

I don't think anyone picking up a set of these will be disappointed. Definately quality pieces.

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

I received mine in the mail last night, that was quick! Placed my order Friday, and received them on Monday! Haven't had a chance to take a look at them yet, but I may try to do the install this weekend, if so I will post pics.

Thanks!

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

Jeff, I got mine put in and they fit and worked great. Sadly I didn't get any pictures as I was in a rush to get it put back together so I could have the truck to haul home a 71 C10. I will be reupholstering the seat soon, so I will put it on my to do list to get pictures while that's out.
