    Replacing factory speaker fabric cover

    My searching has come up empty...

    Anyone have any guidance for replacing the original speaker fabric covering for the speakers on a '99 SNOB?

    I prefer to replace it to keep it original vs replacing speakers/covers and all. Speakers still work fine, unfortunately the fabric has ripped on one of the covers.

    Thanks!

    My advice would be to cut the fabric and top mount some new speakers. I think it would be less of a pain than stretching new grill cloth over those pvc rings in the 99 SNOB. But if you don't want to do that, try this for grill cloth. The tan looks close.

      Grille cloth from Automotive upolostry repair in San Diego called Keystone. Used window screen material and then grille cloth over that.

        n2sandcars,

        I was able to find some grill cloth and recover the factory installed speakers. I have nothing against the new speaker instal, but really like being able to keep the original look of the SNOB.

        Thanks!
