I am going to make this long story very short. (If you want to hear the long version, feel free to buy me beer at the next rally.)

I have not heard real well for years, but I can still appreciate music.

The radio was dead when we got the coach.
I got a new radio and then realized that the existing speakers were A:Grounded at one side and B:Junk when they were new.
I ran wire and got two new 3.5" Alpine coaxials.
Not only could we each only hear one side but what we could hear was terrible.
I made a temporary mount and put the pair of Tri-ax 4x6s there. The one side that each of us could hear sounded better. But it still sucked.
I scored the last pair of Tri-ax like the first in town and made up the four mounting plates you can see in the picture.

I thought the little lights in the sides were useless from the get-go.

Yes, you do have to damage the head liner, but it works great.
