MCM
http://www.mcminone.com/
and
Parts Express
http://www.partsexpress.com
are reasonable sources for speaker components. The web sites can be a bit to
navigate:
MCM [Audio-Video] - [Automotive Electronics Speaker}
Parts Exp [Speakers] - [Car Audio] - [Automotive Speakers (named table on
right of page)]
Both sites have various weird shaped automotive speakers. There are gobs of
audio, speakers and assorted electronic AV consumer stuff on these sites.
Most of the market for Replacement automotive speakers involves the use of a
inverter powered booster amplifier that could be used for a arc welder /
satellite tracking antenna servo amplifier / deep sea sonar system and is
most likely not needed is this application. Historically oval shaped
speakers in rectangular / oval frames are not quite as good as round ones
however for a car that has holes in it I would use what ever is the easiest
to fit and not look ugly. Speakers that are designed for 100W RMS plus power
levels with voice coils wound out of 4/0 buss bar are totally unnecessary
but I would get something with a magnet larger that squires family jewels.
