<div class="bbWrapper">I have been looking at the on-line parts suppliers and parts catalogs I have all with no luck. Anyone have a source for a replacement speaker grill for a 1957?</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">OK I was fussing under the dash and pulled the speaker wire loose. well apparently I have two magnets. I installed this speaker so long ago I couldn&#039;t remember how to wire it. Do both wires go to the primary terminal and I only have one wire going to the other speaker magnet. Do I need to run another wire to the other magnet as I only have one. I could have been running only one all this time.</div>
