Subject:      More on Pod Speaker Replacement.
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


The Pod Speakers on a non-Westy GL don't have any screws. They
are a one piece unit that mount to the cealing using a small
bracket.


While thinking about this, I have come to the conclusion that
the pods were made very light for a reason. If one was to
experience a rapid deaccelleration event (i.e. crash) the speakers
could be ripped from their mounts and become projectiles. The
heavier the speaker the more dangerous they become.


I don't want to install speakers in the rear panels, because I
often carry a load of camping equipment which would cover them up.


I will keep thinking about this and will report back.
