CRX 1990 rear audio speaker brackets- any clues?

    We have bought a 1990 CRX which has rear panels and wiring designed for
    speakers. Some car audio websites say the standard rear speaker for this car
    is a 6 1/2 inch. But it obviously needs an adapter to hold a round speaker,
    as the holes and existing plastic brackets behind the trim do not form a 6
    1/2 inch circle.
    Our Honda dealer could not find any rear brackets in his catalogue. The CRX
    and regular Civic has a support bracket in the front door for speakers- can
    anyone suggest how we can find one for the back that will not involve a lot
    of redrilling of holes?

    Your dealer appears to be an idiot.

    I bought the brackets from my dealer I believe... but anyway, you can
    probably get them at http://www.crutchfield.com or your local Circuit
    City/Good Guys.

    Chances are Honda just discontinued them. I'd call local junkyards
    first. I have an 88 CRX and I bought mine at a junkyard. Or else
    just cut them out of aluminium or steel.

    I made mine for a 89 CRX out of sheetmetal using metal shears and a
    nibbling tool (available at Radio Shack or Home Depot for about $15).
    You can also pick them up on Ebay occasionally for about $40. The
    sheetmetal approach will cost you about $5, excluding any tool
    purchase.
