Pretty simple to make one up. Make a template with a few pieces of cardboard stuck together then transfer to some MDF. Trim with black carpet and your done. All the bits are available from bunnings for like 50 bucks. |

You'll probably be hard pressed to find one, especially in any reasonable condition as the area around the rear glass rots and they get wet. Problem is that they are just compressed cardboard and fall to pieces when wet. MrDatsun21 has it right, and I've done it too, you can use a use a flat panel and then use a 40/50mm spacer to lift it up behind the seat - yes you will need to spend some time working on the curve but you can use the back seat frame as a reference to measure to the glass, and also slope the panel so it fits against the glass. If you put a panel ring underneath (and over top of the existing speaker hole) you can fit a 6x9 speaker flush and cover (if inclined) straight over top. You can also screw it down tight to make sure it doesnt move. It would be even harder if you wanted to shape it like the original. |
