Lee I just looked at the car again and you are right. The speaker grille is still there right next to the pod, but I forgot that the metal grille was the speaker grill too along with the defrosters. Im so used to the 67 Mustang setup where the speaker holes are in the dash pad. I think I saw the Fomoco Speaker. This car is so different. Thanks jon Quoting lmathias@bellsouth.net: - The speaker should be in the stock location. The hole you see hacked in the dash is where Shelby cut it to install the oil pressure line. The tach pod actually only covers part of the speaker - hole. The car should have both the defroster ducts under the grill where the speaker goes. The pod goes over the grill after the speaker and ducts are installed.
