What does your speaker mounting look like inside the speaker box?
You know, I really thought I took pictures of this but I can't seem to find any.

Inside the speaker box are four studs that the original speaker would drop over to be secured with nuts. In order to account for the thickness of the MDF and correctly space the speakers away from the grille I altered the mount by screwing flanged nuts 1/2 onto the studs, then I threaded 5/8" studs into the nuts. This spaced the MDF properly plus allowed "extended" mounting studs. I used red loctite on the threads and with luck everything will stay put.

I'll see if I can find time to take it down and get pictures this weekend.
