  • Rear Seat Speaker Grill Color

    On my 65 Commander, was the rear seat speaker grille painted to match the color of the car, or left gray as it came out of the NOS package (thanks to Stude1964)? Thanks guys.

    Depends on who did the installation. rear seat speakers were installed by the dealer, not the factory. That means a good amount of variability is to be expected.

      1561129 Speaker Grille does not show a "P" for prime after the Part number as the '60-'63 does, also no "Screen" and "Bezel" is listed.
      That tells me it is not dull Prime, but Gray gloss finish Paint and includes or is part of the Rim for '64-'66 F,Y and J Models.

      Even though Gray may be correct, I would make it the same color as the Cardboard Shelf Liner which is Interior Color, not necessarily a match though.

        Yea, the screen is all that covers the speaker and is a grey paint. I have a red interior - where can I get the correct paint color?

          You will have to choose a "close" Red spray paint at a Paint Store, Hardware, WalMart, Auto Parts Store etc.

              Yea I saw that. Fortunately, Stude1964 got me all the parts I need. Wouldn't mind having the manual though...
