Probably impossible...
Hey fellow SVXers... Anybody have, or know where I might find, a passenger-side sun visor in grey?
I need the entire swivel too. And for a really impossible ask, does anyone have (or know) where I can get new rear deck speaker grilles?? Thanks all, Mark |
Re: Probably impossible...
There looks to be one on Ebay right now... https://www.ebay.com/itm/1992-Subaru...4AAOSw1jpcM8Sx
Item# 41f7dc42cf if the link doesn’t work. I saw someone also has the clip listed if you need that as well. |

The problem lies with the fact that in their mounting position on the rear deck, they get constant heat and the effects of damaging UV rays from the sun, which dries them out, makes them brittle and crack. Add in the vibration from the bass speakers and you have a recipe for failure. The beige ones are more fragile than the gray ones because the bronze glass passes more UV light. Some members have glued them together, covered them completely by stretching speaker fabric over the entire grille and then reinstalling them. Salvage yards or cars being parted out may be the only options. Southern and southwestern cars have gotten more sun, but are more likely to have dark tinted windows to minimize sun damage . |

Bologna, I bought factory-fresh tan rear speaker grills as recently as 2012 or 2013.

You could always try a DIY speaker cover...

What we have here is a failure to communicate.

Re: Probably impossible...
I have a great spare set of Black ones from a 93 wrecked SVX here in NZ, BUT unwilling to sell them as when my rear speakers need replacing I know the current fitted ones will break...sorry.

Re: Probably impossible...
OP, if I find the time, I may try and go see if this one SVX is still at a pick n pull in Fort Worth and hope the grills are on it.
