I didn't do a good job of searching before posting. My bad!
I found this thread (www.brickboard.com/RWD/volvo/1598803/220/240/260/280/front_door_replacement_speakersfinal_word.html) which gives lots of info.
If I am reading this correctly, then securing to the door panel itself is the standard way of doing things. Still I wonder about those 4 holes on 4" centers in the door metal...
I don't have or see anything about speaker backing plates on my current setup. So not sure what that is about. Maybe only on later than 1983 models?
I see the reference to the now-discontinued Crutchfield install kit. I do see that WagonMeister sells something looking quite similar (www.wagonmeister.com/speaker-cover-adaptors-for-early-240) but it looks to be only part of the Crutchfield solution. And I am still not sure I get how these are installed or work.
So still looking for info if anyone can help. Thanks
