2013 Mustang door speaker brackets?
 
I've had my 2013 GT Premium for about 2 weeks now and just bought new Infinity 6832 speakers. I've only seen one other thread on all of the forums where this was even talked about. The redesigned stock Shaker speaker on the 2013 is all one piece (speaker/bracket), so there is no way to mount the new 6x8 speakers I just purchased.... (Found this out the hardway)

Is there any mounting solution available yet to replace the Shaker door speakers on a 2013?

I would assume that the brackets from the 2010-2012 models would work, but I can't find those anywhere either. As mentioned in a previous thread the oem speakers that include those brackets run about 50 a piece...

Go to Walmart, get a couple of wood clipboards, trace your oem speaker brackets onto them, trace the new speakers over those so the mounting holes line up as close as possible (or if they don't line up, you'll need an additional set of screws to mount the speaker to the adapter), use a jigsaw or dremel to make your cuts, and there you go - you just made your own adapter plates. ;)

Edit: actually, I'm not looking to make adapter plates like you would for components, I'm trying to find the spacer. The spacer and the speaker is all one piece for 2013.
The mounting surface isn't completely flat, so it would be a bit harder to make my own brackets. The bottom of the speaker housing angles half way through to sit flush against the door. Basically if I could get one of the housings or brackets from an 05-12, that would allow me to mount the speaker.

The brackets in the 11-12 are flat too.

Edit: Found a site that sells just the spacer for only 11 bucks: http://tousleyfordparts.com/parts/20...eaker%20spacer
