6x9 to 8" adapter
Does anyone make one or do I have to make my own?

The 8 inch round grill won't cover the 6 x 9 hole. The screw holes are on the sides of the 6 x 9. Maybe have someone make something like a nice color accent bezel. I think that would look nice.

[ATTACH=CONFIG]540896[/ATTACH] Starboard, top is 7.7 and bottom is 8.8. |
I made some trim rings out of 1/2" starboard and they worked out great

http://i1094.photobucket.com/albums/...o/IMG_2196.jpg You can buy starboard at Home Depot now (at least you can down here) Or, 1/4 sheets of lexan cut with jigsaw and cleaned up with table sander. Rattle can with your choice of bezel color and you cant tell where the speaker cover ends and the bezel begins. |
Dan,
I was going to switch my 6x9's over to 8.8 JL Audios. The 8.8's would cover the hole, but 2 of the 6 mounting screws would be going through the old cut-out hole. I didn't see that as a problem though. Check out the specs on the JL 8.8's online, no plate needed, at least with my 6x9's. |

I had my waterjet guy make a piece out of stainless, painted it to match
