Front door speakers for BG

What size are the standard speakers in the front doors on a BG ? I know I could just take the card off and look but I don't want to do it twice ! I know there's already a post about this lower down, but the question didn't really get answered there.
cheers, john.

From memory, the front door speakers are 160mm. Please bear in mind its been 1.5 years since I had a BG though.... A double check will take you 10 minutes, and could save you a lot of bother. :wink:

what he said . 24mm ? Nah, they'd be teensy. 24 cm ? Too big. 24 inches ? Surely not, I've got bass drums smaller than that .
24 watts ? that sounds reasonable.
Guess I'll just have to have a look.
by the way> Anyone know what the black and red wire in the right speaker/power loom is for ?

ok, got the door card off and the speaker out. it's fooked. the hole in the door is about 130mm diameter. the speaker cone is also 130mm accross. I'm looking at some kenwood 5.25" (130mm ) speakers on fleabay which seem reasonably priced at £14.99 , and the seller also has kenwood 4" speakers for the rear holes at £9.99, so I think that's looking like my best bet at the moment.
I'm not after making my ears bleed, I just want rid of the rasberry noises whilst still getting a decent volume.

thanks SstennizZ. Just trying to sort the postage cost out then the Kenwoods will be on their way
to me !
Anyone had any trouble with the screws holding the rear speakers in ? I ended up having to drill
the heads off and knock the screws out, and have broken the bit where the metal joins the plastic.
Time to get the superglue out !

still no closer, the seller reckons I need 160mm speakers for the doors. Guess I'll have just to try Halfrauds - they should have guide books !
