Default source for speaker cover material needed

Come spring I will be doing many projects including carpeting. A new carpet set does not include material to cover front speaker covers; the ones built into the sills by your feet. Anyone have an idea where to go for this item?

Shhh....Baby sleeping...... :sleep:

I just ordered new covers for a 1996 Coupe and got them. Or you can get the material from any good stero shop. Just take the old material off and glue the new one on. Mine are black.

Are you talking front or back? I'm talking front, connected to the sills. I want to redo those, please!

Thanks triple black for the great website! As usual, another forum member to my rescue........

I too have seen the material at stereo shops. This may be easier than ordering on-line. Might even try Radio Shack.

radio shack sell the material to redo speakers. its a little tricky but $5.00 for material beats buying new speaker covers! :yesnod: :cheers:

Walmart also sells automotive "carpet" that comes in rolls. That should work fine also.
