I remounted the front speakers in The Beast.
Previously I'd mounted the spacer directly to the sheet metal of the door.
Today I mounted the spacer to the plastic basket the old speakers were mounted to.
The overthinking reason was the gaping hole in the plastic moisture barrier.in front of the speaker. A hole that is nicely plugged by the basket.
I would probably have done this from the get go, but a lack of 1-1/2" long #10 sheet metal screws prevented it. A trip to Lowe's solved the lack of screws.
An unexpected benefit of using the baskets is they change the aim of the speaker just a little bit and I can actually hear the slight difference.
The rear speaker holes are sealed by the spacers, so I might not go back in and put the baskets there. Or I might. Depends on how ambitious I get. It's simple now that I have the right length screws.
