Replacement speaker
Hi,
Does anyone know the best place to get a replacement off side rear lower door speaker? There are loads on eBay but they don't have the cover which I also need.
I have a 2006 Discovery 3 Metropolis edition

The cover / grille is a part of the door card. its the speaker, this sits in a black plastic ring, this is located behind the door card. the Grille is then fitted from the outside, 3 locking tabs that you need to melt/glue to the black plastic ring. If you can get Bob to carfully remove the door card, undo the speaker, those 3 plastic luggs / locking tabs has a plastic mold on them, I did use a sharp knife and cut the mold out so i could slide the grille out and remove the ring. I had enough lenght of the plastic tabs left, so i used a lighter and melted the plastic. So now the grille is secure.

Thank you! Will try
So do I need a new door card too? The speaker bass sounds awful so needs replacing, but it looks a bit sad too so would like to do the grill.
Previous owner broke it taking things to the tip so needs some tlc
Have spent £££ on suspension and other mechanics so feel like all the other bits should be restored too!

Ye I would go for a new complete door card and replace the speaker that sounds dodgy (the speaker could be damaged looking at the damage to the mesh) 07 Java Black TD V6 D3, EGRs Blanked, Tow bar, Full dog guard & divider, LED Spots , DRLs, GG ATs, RLD Sump guard, RLD Spare Wheel Protector, D4 LED Rear Lights, Limo tints on boot and Midnight tint on rear windows, Kenwood screen with Garmin nav, Rear cameras, D4 Steering wheel with flappy paddles, T-max split charge system, Tree sliders, Prospeed roof rack & Ladder, Alisport fast road inter cooler,

I upgraded from highline audio to logic7 audio. I din have to buy 5 New speakers, but it comes without grille. TLO told me That i should buy 5 d pilar covers with speaker, this worked out cheaper than buying just the speakers alone. And it comes with the grill and the Black plastic ring.Used a sharp knife and a lighter for tools. If you are lucky mmj can get you the needed parts. The doorcard needs to be removed. Thats an easy Job.
