1969 sound system stock
« on: March 17, 2009, 04:13:06 PM »
I have a 1969 convertible w/ AM/FM push button radio. I have 2 little speakers under the dash. Did this year come w/ kick panel or rear speakers as a stock option? I would like to add some if stock, and not have the interior appear other than original. I saw speaker brackets for rear speakers for convertibles on Rick's.
Thanks for your insight.

Only with a stereo AM/FM radio or an 8 track player.  You could get one "auxilliary speaker with RPO U80 on a mono radio.

There's a shop over the border from Washington that packs high tech speakers into origional housing / framework that you may upgrade with if you choose. Better quality than the repo houses. Radio conversions and the like. I supply him with radios when I have them. Naturally there are other shops but this is just one. If you call / e-mail him he may fill your needs.

Mark, thanks:
It looks like I have U69, since I have the floor console (D55), so the U79 was not avail. w/ this option, hence you mentioned the U80 option. I saw a wire that looked like it may have been speaker wire cut coming up from passenger side in the trunk by wheel well. To be stock, it would be a single 6X9 speaker for the U80? I guess I should look in my books to see location for the convertible and the bracket, etc. to mount it on.
