Speakers for 1986 ssp
 

What speakers are you guys using for a 1986 ssp? Are you guys putting a speaker in the middle section too or just the 2 front?



Part numbers would help. Also how do the dash pad caps look? I was thinking about putting one over my old one either that or buying a repo?



Thanks

After reading very mixed reviews about the dash caps, my expectations were pretty low. I was pleasantly surprised with the results. Installation was probably the easiest thing I've done to the car yet.

Give me a little bit and I'll see if I can find some before and after pictures for you.

Sorry the pictures aren't great, but here you go:

:2thumbs: Looks good!

Looks great! I wish I had done that instead of getting an aftermarker replacement pad, which IMO doesn't look as nice as that cap.

where did you get the cap at?


How is it attached?

I bought it from 50resto.com, although I'm sure that there are other places that sell them.

It came with a tube of silicone (to be applied to certain places sparingly), but it fit so well I haven't used it. I just basically slid it into place.

Keep in mind that it's plastic, so the feel is different from a dashpad--or at least I imagine so (my original dashpad had become pretty brittle).

That turned out very nice. :yes:

Looks great and way better than those $200 repro pads.

I thought this looked familiar?

You know, I was thinking that looked familiar Andy. Just didn't know it was the same as what you installed in your SSP. Looks great in both cars.

JC Whitney Auto Parts & Accessories has the best price
Plus free shipping.
I had contacted the Mfg. and could not get a better price!
they buy this (and other product) by the boat load and if your
comparing Apples to Apples.....

And the only difference is the Price?

I was in the garage yesterday, and noticed that the one on my car is a DashTop by Palco Industries.

The DashCap looks identical. I wouldn't be surprised if they're popped from the same factory.
