SMD 6x8" to 5 1/4" Speaker Adapter Plates - FIRST SET FREE! a pair Rockford Fosgate & Pioneer speakers also! (pics, info inside)


Recommended Posts

Last week when i released my 6x9" - 6 1/2" ABS Adapter plates, a lot of people asked about 6x8's. Well today, i designed an adapter just for those people and anyone else who needs them! This is for a single 5 1/4" speaker but i plan on ordering a set of 5 1/4" Components so i can modify this plate to hold a tweeter too. I also plan on modding it to take a 6 1/2" as well. It will be a little wider on the flange part but i think i can make it work :D


anyhow, this is what i have so far.



Also, the bit i am using is just a micron to big for the lettering i am doing (the 6x8" and "made in USA" at the top) so it sorta blew out a few of the letters (like the A missing the inside of the A). But it still looks good and is 100% functional! I am ordering a better bit tonight. Also did some in MDF (very bottom) and the letters got chunked out, same for the signature logo. Again, ill fix that with the new bit.



So if you are looking to put a 5 1/4" speaker in a 6x8" hole, click this link

Now for the good part. I bought these Rockford Fosgate 6x8" speakers at the local West Coast Car Audio (not to be confused with my webstore wcCarAudio.com). I walked in and was ready to pay full price EVEN THOUGH i am a fully authorized RF Power Dealer myself, i wanted to support a local shop and just buy them with no questions asked. I NEVER walk in to a shop like "do you know who i am" attitude. I lay low and just get what i need. Of course 9.9 times out of 10, i get recognized LOL. So the amazing guys at West Coast gave me a great deal on these after i told them i was going to make a template and then give them away. VERY nice of them! thanks for the deal guys!
So check this out (part 1). Who here needs a set of these plates personally? First person to chime in and PROMISE to send me a pic once installed, will get my first pair for free! The ABS versions of course (unless you want MDF let me know). Thats it! First person to chime in gets them!
So check this out again (part 2). The adapter plates are DEAD ON! I now have no need for these Rockford Fosgate 6x8's. Sooooo......who has some messed up 6x8's in their ride and want a Rockford swap? First person to post a picture of their door, rear deck or any other spot where they would put them if they got them, WILL GET THEM! So post up!!! We all have camera phones so it should be easy enough.

check this out AGAIN again! (part 3)
Who here WANTS to upgrade from 6x8's to a 5 1/4" but doesn't have the speakers to do so? First person to order and pay for a set of plates will get those Pioneer 5 1/4" speakers that i used to test the hole size! The ones pictured above. Post a picture of your reciept. Date and time don't matter. What matters is who posts the pic HERE first. (block out your vital info of course). I just want to see you did and guess what? you get the speakers!
Oh, i can't forget to thank my friend James, he brought me by these 5 1/4" speakers for test fit! I was gonna buy them but he gave them to me. So now, one of you is about to get lucky off of my good luck! Thanks James bro (if you are looking lol)

I am going to be making a lot of stuff in my shop and giving away my proto's and the things i test my proto's in, including speakers, subs and other gadgets i may work on over the upcoming weeks, months, years. It pays to be a member on SMD because i LOVE doing this :D
Lets go! :)
