Hello Experts.
Would any of you know any specifics regarding Blaupunkt accessory speakers for Ovals (specifically 1956 or 1957?)

Here is an example of what I have and the link of what I THINK is the correctly suited style.

1. Approximate year manufactured?
2. Where and how is it supposed to be mounted?
3. Best suited for which type of VW, bus, Ghia or beetle?

I was planning to mount the speaker to the rear luggage area.

Thank you
Mark

Hi Mark I've mounted 2 of these Blaupunkt speakers on my under dash Bamboo shelf. I put new units in them and they actually makes a pretty good sound.
I've also seen them mounted in the rear luggage area, and on a rear luggage shelf.

Thank you Peter.
Those re really wonderful, but I'm wondering if they pre-date my 56? When I see these for sale in the classified section, thee are usually advertised for older beetles.

Maybe not early enough for you, but this is out of a 63 catalog.
