Sorry I misread you post, but try them anyway. At 82 y.o. my brain can not keep up with eyes.

The mesh will come off the reproduction speaker grills if that's what you mean.

GRILLE, REAR PACKAGE TRAY SPEAKER - 18978-4A - National Parts Depot

Buy Part#18978-4A - GRILLE, REAR PACKAGE TRAY SPEAKER

The original is a pot-metal cast piece with expanded metal mesh, held together from below by four wing nuts.

 

Those pics help a lot...but also raises the question: Does the package tray get sandwiched in between the grill and the package tray frame? I am trying to imagine exactly how that works with my package tray mod:

In my case the front face of the speaker "frame" is proud of the package tray metal by about 1/8" by the time you account for any foam strip I need to put underneath. This ends up right about flush with the top of my fiberglass package tray when I get it overlaid with vinyl. I am speculating here on whether this means the grills would need to be inset into the package tray or whether they would rest on top like the factory install. I guess it all depends on the threaded portion of the grill where the studs thread in. Originally I had wanted some custom rectangular grills....but they simply do not exist for 6x9s aside from some I found for a Porsche(which was just too expensive for what the part is) so the original part is really the best option except for the grill mesh itself.

 

IIRC, the optional rear speaker, included when you got the "reverb", wasn't a 6 x 9 but maybe a 5 x 7?

I was never much for the look of "speaker grilles" stuck on the package tray. If I was going to do a speaker install I'd drill a bunch of 3/8" holes in the package tray "board" within the area covered by the speaker, cover it with a fine screen, then top it with an interior matching padded material so they were "invisible".

 

Yeah, Ideally any grills would be flush with the tray...but with vinyl as the covering material blocking the grill doesn't really work. I suppose I could use an 1/8" punch and punch out holes in the vinyl itself(and the fiberglass below with a drill bit) but that type of precise layout and punching is very tricky. I would be thrilled if I could just find trim rings like you can for round speakers like this:

A dime a dozen for round speakers but completely non-existent for oval speakers. And pieces like that are not easy to fabricate correctly without a die. Its why I have to settle for the stock pieces...they are the least obtrusive of any 6x9 grills I have found. I have considered these though:

It "might" be possible to mount them "upside-down" in a way that you end up with a flush-mount grill. The holes really look too small for the purpose though, ideally you want them somewhere in the 3-8mm range

 

The 65-66 Rear Speaker option and Studiosonic Sound (reverb with rear speaker) option both employ that type of speaker and grille. The package tray gets an oval hole cut out and four holes about 3/8" in diameter around it, and bosses with threaded studs drop into those holes (the holes were already in my car's bulk head, may be in yours). The speaker is held up from underneath and the speaker grille held down, with the package tray and metal bulkhead sandwiched between, by four wing nuts. My Studiosonic Reverb is not currently plugged in and working, so the speaker is there for nostalgia and the grille to suggest something different about the car...but YES!.... My package tray has two other holes cut for functional 6x9s on the ends, the holes covered by vinyl screen for support and the entire package tray is covered by a cloth that replicates the texture of the package tray but is acoustically transparent for those occasions when I want that "looks stock but ready to rock" appeal. Did the same thing on my older son's car, but he doesn't have the Studiosonic reverb or center speaker. It's also a good place to mount a center channel or woofer.

This is exactly how I did mine as well. Under mounted the 6x9's to the shelf, drilled sound holes above the speakers in the package tray then covered the p-tray in marine grade black canvas and it looks/sounds great. Very clean look in the end.

 

The last picture says it all. That's how mine is also. Why use a speaker grill?

 

I did because I added the Studiosonic Reverb option to my car just for fun and to have a few folks that notice to ask... something different. If I wanna hide it or remove it all I gotta do is spin off the wing nuts and change the package tray.

 

Assuming you will be posting some as you work on it in your build log?, I'd be curious to see the progress and what you end up with.

 

Yes indeed. More than likely I will be pulling out the welder and grinder and doing a lot of cursing as my first couple attempts fail. Not like I can do much else till my rear seat upholstery comes in regardless. I can at least use some posterboard templates to simulate bezel design though and see what is most visually pleasing. I suspect I will end up with a shape that follows the curve of the package tray itself, a trapezoid of some type.

 

Following examples from this forum, I made MDF spacers and a flush package tray. I covered the speaker holes in my new packet tray with screen material for some stiffness then put on the fabric. The finished product looks clean and the sound is great.

 

For reference, what I am doing with the front speaker grill since I switched to using 2 4x6 speakers, some detail work and prep/paint to go, but you get the idea.

So in short, attempting to find a way so that whatever I do with the rear speakers somewhat matches.

 

I have a 69 Fastback without the fold down seat and have a similar problem. To complicate it the metal package tray has holes not well suited for speakers.

 

Yeah, it isn't much better for '66, its why I cut out the holes that were there and welded in the new "buckets". Not something most people are willing to do though. I don't know what the package tray of a '69 fastback looks like...but since you don't have the back glass coupes do(or at least moving window glass) don't you have room for speakers in the interior 1/4 panels? Of course hacking up interior panels isn't much better. I did play with the idea in my head at one point of putting a subwoofer inside the middle non-seat seatback(in the seat foam) of the rear seat...up until I realized that I had no interest in a subwoofer at all at least...in-seat installation is a thing in some cars, but you have to be pretty desperate to go that far.

 

Here's a pic of my shelf with the package tray installed. As I mentioned above, speakers mounted under the shelf, holes drilled for sound in the particle board tray, then skinned in marine grade black canvas for fade resistance. Sounds and looks great. I also wrapped my interior windshield a-pillars in the same canvas so they would match and its really nice.

Nice job! When I had 3 point belts in the back for my sons, I also some Mercedes seat belt bezels like those on the package tray, painted turquoise to match and worked great.

 

It really worked out well. I used early 70's Corvette belt guides in mine.

 

I know it has been a while. If you did buy the grills with the mesh, I will buy the mesh.

 

Nope, This particular project is still aggravating me. After looking at the size of the grill I decided it was simply too large to put to either side....still working on a solution

 

I did about the same thing on my Tahoe Turquoise car as my son's Emberglo car, but I wanted to use the Studiosonic reverb optional rear speaker and grille for a little different look. My 6x9s mounted on either side from below sound good through the fabric with a package tray board appearance and I can add a sub in the place of the old FoMoCo speaker later if desired.

 

I really wanted to do the fabric over my package tray but with a 1969 Fastback the tray has a curve and has to go under the rear window rubber seal. In addition my interior is Dark Red and I would need to find the right color UV resistant fabric.
Here is what the package tray looks like.

 

The fabric is not very thick, adhesive will make it follow the curve, and it will still go under the rear window seal.
