350Z door deep driver speaker mount

thingiverse

This is a speaker mount that I designed to fit Focal ES 165K drivers using the factory location and bolt holes. Anybody installing aftermarket speakers in 350Zs know space is very limited due to the window glass. Fitting deep drivers like the Focals are very difficult with generic mounts. After many iterations I found a size/shape that fit the speaker without interference to the glass, door skin or door card AND angled the speaker to closer align with the shape of the door card. It's sized to be a snug fit for these speakers with a 170.5 diameter available and an 8mm radial mounting surface for the speaker. There were two modifications I had to make to accommodate this mount. I shaved a little off the speaker grill. I'm not positive it would make contact with the driver, but I didn't want to risk it. The other was to Dremel two of the plastic ribs in the corner of the door card as they made contact with the mount. Pretty simple and arguably doesn't compromise any rigidity. Forgot to photograph though. Only other thing to call out is that I got lazy and didn't add bolt holes to the model. I just drilled them out after printing.
