[doc] Re: Replacing rear speakers

["Chris Williams" <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the reply's so far. Just to add I the same as Phil am 
using the pyramid 4108gs speakers, they do seem to be a good 
quality. I also purchased pyramid 328gs speakers for the front. 
However these may be a problem because of a pronounced 'tweeter' 
however I willnot know until I relace the dash and binacle later in 
the year. What is required is some thread extenders I think, anyone 
know where to get such a thing? I have also replaced the speaker 
wiring.
Shannon, I would very much appreciate it if you would be good enough 
to e mail me the copies of the fitting instructions that you have, 
pdf please. And Phil thanks for the offer I may have to take you up 
on it! If any one knows of where to get thread extenders from could 
they please post that also.
Thanks everyone
Chris
