Quoted from ezatnova:I ordered Flipper fidelity’s option that is made for speaker light kits.
EDIT:
Although I ordered the “correct” speakers, I went back and re-read SpeakerLightKits instructions...Son of a.... STILL have to cut that metal grate out.
Yep. I have that info linked to on my website with a bold red IMPORTANT next to it so buyers can see that before purchasing the Speaker Light Kits. As stated, I do offer replacement speaker plates that have the bars already removed from the speaker holes for aftermarket speaker users to use with my SPIKE 2 (type 11 and type 12) Speaker Light Kits if they don't want to cut the bars out themselves.
Quoted from Izzy24:The kit for my Batman 66 had wooden spacers that fit under the speaker allowing for installation without cutting the grill. Not sure about your application. I did have to paint the wood black to not stand out on either side.[quoted image][quoted image]
My SPIKE 2 (type 11 and type 12) Speaker Light Kits make the speaker plates set back 1/2" deeper in the speaker panel mount. That makes it so there is no room (on the right side) to also have a spacer between the speaker and the speaker plate. The upgraded speaker needs to mount directly to the speaker plate and the extended tweeter (if it has one) needs to go through the hole in the speaker plate on most upgraded speakers.
Quoted from Yelobird:Not sure who provided those wood spacers but they are not part of the batman speaker light kit or the flipper fidelity speaker kit. Those are more then likely home brew from someone that bought the FF speakers without the correct plastic spacer rings. They offer them with or without rings.
I saw another person post that they had recently got some speakers from FF with these older type spacers. They did use the separate wood ones in the past.....maybe FF went back to using them again?
If anyone has any questions about my Speaker Light Kits....feel free to e-mail: [email protected] and I should be able to help you out.
