Because I am considering upgrading the audio in my Falcon, I was interested in what my son did in his Mustang. Like a lot of us, he had purchased the aftermarket kickpanels that are designed to add L and R speakers. And.... like lots of us, he discovered that decent sounding speakers have much larger magnets and therefore are difficult to install because the magnets protrude in the back of the panels. The speakers he got for the Mustang protruded a full 1/2 inch and made it impossible to install them.
Solution: Automotive audio stores market a spacer to mount between the speaker frame and the mounting surface. There are several thicknesses available. He got the 3/4 inch units for only $15.
