13cm speakers

Mazda MX5 1.8
for the 1.2 rn mk1 they are 4" (10 cms) speakers i believe? in the dash
Did the speakers come with grilles ? If so you can mount them in the doors, its will mean cutting the door card but its such a better option than 10cm speakers.

These are my components fitted to my old 1.2 RL, i had to run the speaker cable through the rubber grommet like shown. Well worth the effort and easily do-able.
PM me if you want any help doing it.
Yeah it is supposed to be like that, there are metal mounting brackets behind the door card for speakers, its where they go on the RT/16v !! all you need to do is line up the mountings and cut the hole for the speaker then screw on !!
Removing the door card is fairly easy:
1) Unclip top half of door handle
2) unscrew door handle two screws
3) unscrew opening handle screw
4) unscrew door pocket 4 screws
5) unclip mirror cover
6) carefully peel the door card off the door, there are 4-6 clips which usually pop out (scaring me) and lots of door sealer which likes to pretend its a mixture of superglue and plasticine.
You have to prise the card up off the weatherseal at the top (this is where removing the mirror cover helps).
Thats it. All done apart from spending the next few days trying to remove the sealer from your arms without pulling all the hairs out. :-(
