Rear speaker mounting?   Message List

Re: [Twingo Lovers Club] Re: Rear speaker mounting?

Alex, here's the only reference I can fond on the Blaupunkt site other
than in the PDF.

<http://carconf.blaupunkt.com/view_product.asp?lang=de&productno=7606500122001>

As far as I can see, they do not advertise their accessory line of
products much.
