Base stereo (CD400) - centre speaker

Hi Folks,
How is the centre speaker cover removed?

Has anyone tried using it as an external speaker for their CB/UHF/HF radios?

What size speaker is it? I noticed it has the same part number as the rear row speakers in the HK setup.

Thanks in advance,
Rob
(Currently enjoying upgraded front door speakers!).

Hi CaverD3,
Thanks - but is that link correct? I get a 404 on it...

Regarding the front speakers - very happy with them. They are nowhere near as efficient as the rears, but sound so much better.

Cheers,
Rob

Thanks!

I am waiting to get tax refund, then I can spend on more toys!

I am really sick of the situation with 18" AT tyres. The latest - I rang Yokohama and they have 40 Geolandar AT-S in 265/60R18s at the docks now... only 40! I can see Cooper HT+ in my future as well...

Cheers,
Rob

Do you get Yokahama to put some aside for you?

Nope - they were useless... told me to ring Bob Jane. They "don't have it on the computer as Yokohama don't stock them yet." Couldn't give me a price or anything - "try again in about 2 weeks to see if they have them in the warehouse."

18" tyres in AT are a PITB at the moment!

Did you speak to Rick Rogers of Yokahama Aust? he was very helpful when I rang. Sales manager I think

Yokohama Tyre Australia Pty Ltd
Retail Sales13 1509
Wholesale Sales(02) 8748 2645
Head Office-Mrktng & Admin(02) 8748 2600

head office would probably be the one I rang.

I have installed a speaker in front. the cover easily pops off with a screwdriver. I then made up a plate like this


and installed a GME spk07 speaker (because I knew it would work) it is 8ohms 2 watts and works very well. this is the installed unit



running the cable is a doddle as it just drops straight down. use some stiff wire to install a draw wire if you have problems and you made need to nick the wifes make up mirror to see what you are doing. the hardest part was putting in the screws with my fat fingers. due to the extra width created by the plate I used a washer from a tap (as in water) kit to elevate it. more pics here http://www.disco3.co.uk/gallery/thumbnails...amp;page=1

Thanks CW! Nice work on the plate! Thumbs Up

CaverD3 - no, just spoke to a guy in the Yokohama warehouse.

Cheers,

Caver - actually, I am holding off... I may have a lead to swap my spare set of 18" wheels over for 17" wheels.
