OR WTB original Blazer Speaker - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**PDXk5** · 12-25-2019, 08:04 PM

I’m interested in a nice original under dash mount Blazer speaker (like one in the attached pic). Who has one? Let me know, thanks!

**jaros44sr** · 12-27-2019, 10:35 AM

I have one, not sure it works, how could I test it

**DeadheadNM** · 12-27-2019, 10:56 AM

tap a 9v battery to the soldered connections at the speaker - if it crackles it works. Replacement speakers are available.

Thanks!

Ya, I need one without the bolts (welded to the bracket type) so it will mount to the dash with the AC controller without conflict. Thanks for replying.

That’s possible. I think the shape of the tab is different as well. Can you post what you have and let me know what you want for it, please.

**PDXk5** · 12-31-2019, 03:08 PM

Would you accept $200 plus shipping and PayPal fees for it?

Sold to PDXK5 pending payment

*randy500* · 12-31-2019, 09:25 PM

That style of speaker mounts left of center, approx above gas pedal. Mounts at an angle so it isnt seen. The pic of the one you posted should mount at an angle too. They are almost always bent down like shown.

The brackets for each style are totally different and i believe the left of center speaker is earlier years.

**PDXk5** · 12-31-2019, 10:55 PM

Thanks Randy! I want to mount it in the center, so will be taking the bolts off to allow it to mount correctly.

You can do whatever but it wont be correct or even close to right no matter what you do with it if you try to mount it in the center.

The brackets although similar are completely different.

Its not just cut the nuts off and they interchange.
If you cut the nuts off, and you flip the brackets it will bolt up but its still not the same.

*randy500* · 12-31-2019, 11:16 PM

Good pics here of the correct brackets.

Center brackets are much shorter above the speaker, have rounded ends and do not hang as much below the speaker.
Everybody thinks the brackets interchange and thinks the speakers are installed perpendicular to the floor so its visible too.

Just trying to help you out, i believe ive seen that your fixing up a nice rig there and figured you would like to know.
