Simple speaker panel build for our 1963 LS-swapped Buick Riviera project.
Welcome to (does stuff garage) - Today’s project we are building a DIY rear speaker/package shelf. Starting off by creating a cardboard template with length and width you need and then using the secret Uncle Matt Dad trick of using the back class curve to get you rear edge - you've now got yourself a pattern.

I used some cheap (crappy) plywood from our shed for the lower panel, but for the top piece that surrounds the speakers I used half inch thick MDF. I did this because MDF is very conisistent and provided great curves and edges after routing. Remember you can always use wood filler (bondo if you made a big mistake) and a belt sander here to fix the mistakes. I wanted to use materials from scratch to show that you don't have to spend a lot of money to get a nice looking part if you're ok with a little extra elbow grease.
I use Morbern AllSport 4-Way stretch vinyls for almost every project for car interiors. I make custom consoles in my free time and its the only vinyl I've ever found that can do the complex curves and angles like a champ. While its a little pricey remember the yards are actually 54" wide. I'm using the standard black but they also have a high-tac version that is great from anything that gets wet on a boat and you don't want things to slide around.

For upholstery adhesive I don't recommend any glue besides DAP Weldwood Landua Top and Trim Adhesive - Nothing else comes close to this stuff and it's well worth it. So much better than 3M High Performance spray adhesive. If you don't wanna buy it by the gallon - call up your local upholstery shop and they will usually sell you a quart or two if you bring in a container.

For speakers I went with the cheapest on Amazon that didn't have grills that looked like they were from Cyperpunk 2077. They are Pioneer TS-F1634R 6.5" 200W 2-way speakers. I prefer the look of 6.5 inch speakers in a rear deck panel with the speakers exposed. If you conceal the speakers under a panel and cover it with grill cloth I prefer to use 6x9's but the choice is up to you!
