Hi all ,
Does anybody know what type of speaker I should be looking for to fit straight into the speaker aperture in the dash ?. I have a 6 volt radio with an MP3 card in it which I would like to connect to the speaker - apart from a power source ( 6v ) ... will I need anything else please ? I don't want the radio part working at this stage since that will need an antenna which I don't want ... any alternatives please ?
Mines a Feb '56 by the way .
If anyone can link to a European supplier I would appreciate it since post from USA needs a mortgage these days ....
Thanks for any help offered 😃

Contact a local band, DJ, or anybody who uses speakers, to find out who rebuilds their speakers.

If isn't not a mono stereo, you'll want a dual voice coil speaker so you can connect the left and right channels to it. Here's one that I'm going to put in a 56. It's the only thing I've found that'll work in that situation.
