Eckhard,
Front dash speaker removal is covered in issue #14 of EuroVan Update. There
are some nice photos showing the grill and speaker. Basically there are
plastic catches that hold the speaker grill in place. Careful lifting and
gently bending of the tabs will get it off.

My '93 GL's speakers have rotted out...actually, it's probably only one
or two of them...I know the right front dash speaker is bad.

Has anybody upgraded their speakers and have their old ones laying
around? Wanna sell 'em?

On another note...perhaps someone has bought replacements that work
really well and aren't very expensive?

I can't figure out how to get the dash speakers out. Let me know how
you did it, I would appreciate it. I tried, but I could not even get
the plastic cover off.
Thanks

Hmmmm...

I hadn't tried to remove them...I assumed the plastic cover popped
off...have to take a look.

Dear Bill & Eurovan List,

I know a guy who bought a number of Eurovans from wreckers. I will check
with him and see what he has. Let me know what you think they are worth.
We can check them and make sure they work. We are in Alberta, Canada.
Chris on the list bought an air conditioner from the vehicle we are talking
about. I bought the cruise system.

Hmmm. In my Passat the speaker covers just pop off on their own. . .while
driving down the road.

Thanks Ron
I just ordered back issues of the EV Update.

I was thinking of replacing mine w/a pair of JBL's bought on egghead.com's
auction. They have multiple pairs of 4", 5.25" & 6" speaker sets for sale
w/the titanium tweeter separated. You could replace the door speakers w/the
larger pair and find a way to place the tweeters in the existing dash
assembly. (FYI: my set up is the VW 'premium' sound w/tweeters up top and
5"-ers down in the door, so I'm not sure if yours is set-up exactly the same
way.) I replaced my door speakers w/5.25" 2-way and left the tweeters up
top as well. May try again w/some 6"ers. So far no drop in audio quality
based on the additional wattage required.

If you look in egghead make sure to visit the Consumer Products/Home Audio
as well as the Consumer Products/Automotive Electronics sections as they
have inadvertantly left many sets of speakers at the wrong part of the site.
Price is usually about $49/set plus shipping and tax if you are in WA state.

Good luck.
