This is my install of two kicker 3.5'' component speakers with our own ''FABO Member '74 Sport AKA Jerry's Front Speaker Bracket''. in my 71 demon.

Great bracket and is nicely and professionally made.

Big difference in sound. i have the two 3.5's up front and two 6x9's in the back powered by a new retrosound model one radio w 4 channels. works and sounds great.

Hey, I did ya one up so to speak. Looked at the setup and determined it could be seen looking into the front windoiw so I blacked the plate out. Then the screws were sticking up a bit and did not want to have scraping on the underside of the dash so I installed some two sided foam. The only thing I did not do was to put something like a sheer fabrac over the speakers to keep little cruds and such out of the speakers. This setup works great (THANKS JERRY!!!). Did you happen to install two of those reducer filters on the speakers. If not when the radio has bass it will make the speakers 'pop' because they cant handle it. Just an FYI!!

I painted my bracket too. I wanted to show the speakers off, so I painted my bracket is red.

I'm glad to see that fit. I fabbed up my own frame a few years ago, but haven't got around to trying to install it yet (I was waiting for when I was pulling the dash out for other reasons). I was worried that the slightly deeper magnets would hit the heater controls. But yours look a lot bigger than mine, even.

No i didnt need them i dont really like alot of bass atleast not in the demon i just turn the bass to -2 or -3 and turn the treble up to 4 or 5.
 
I may have to give this a try. One of my pet projects for my '74 Swinger is to put in an under dash quadraphonic 8-track player. I have a couple of craig/pioneer units that I have, just trying to decide on the lucky one. This looks like it'll solve the problem of where to put the front speakers.
 
I would like to buy a bracket for my 72 dart.

Thanks
Phil
