rp975 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi guys, I am after some info on where I can buy some speaker enclosures that sit above the rear strut towers on an s30. Has anyone used them, and if so what did you think of them? Cheers Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rp975 Posted November 29, 2006 Author Share Posted November 29, 2006 Like this, the speakers that are on top of the rear struts, does anyone know where I can buy some of these? Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spotfitz Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Those are the seat belt retractors, if I'm not mistaken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wreckedj30 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 they don't look to hard to make them, and the only thing that would fit would be like tweeters or a mini speaker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunar240z Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Those are the seat belt retractors, if I'm not mistaken. You're not mistaken, they are seat belt retractors. I've seen them in a Z at the pick'n'pull. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 280ZForce Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 yup those are the plastic pieces that cover the seat belt retractor indeed. I don't have my seatbelts anymore, but I still use those covers to keep it looking clean. Click pics to enlarge them. You see in this pic I have them off and you can see the red mount where the seat belt retractor used to mount to. Then this pic I have everything back in.

spotfitz Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 You're not mistaken, they are seat belt retractors. I've seen them in a Z at the pick'n'pull. Actually, I forgot the smiley. Being I have an early '74 which came with the C pillar mounted retractors and an early '77(yes, there is a difference between early and late in this year model) which has the rear strut tower retractors, well... you get the idea. I've also looked into using them for speakers, but as stated already tweeters is about all you have room for. Now switching over the retractors from my '74 to my '77 and then gutting the '77's to just use the cover as an enclosure would give enough room, but then mounting the speaker becomes the issue.
