Dash speakers in '80Q (Grilles?)

[rob hod]

    Check out a post I did less than a fortnight ago under the subkject
'Free type 44 speaker upgrade'. I don't know if it will help but it concerns
splitting the 'acoustic' cloth liner under the grille.  I don't know if the
type 89 grilles are are made the same way, but worth a check.
