Default Custom Autosound Dash Speaker

Has anyone purchase C2 dash speaker from Custom Autosound? I'm looking at replacing my original with a dual speaker with 60w. Will this work with my original radio?

NO they will not be correct for your original radio. Your Delco requires a proper 10 ohm speaker with a load coil, and if you use one of the after market speakers of lower impedance it will destroy your radio's output transistor. A new correct replacement speaker will greatly improve you radio sound, they are available from many sources, one source is here http://www.turnswitch.com/speakers.htm
