    Speaker installation

    Hi

    Just want to confirm the ordering and placement as I continue my rebuild..... I recall that the dash is installed first and then the speaker from the top side. Speaker is not under mounted and not installed before the dash. Correct ?

    correct. just replaced speaker from the top with dash in place.
    Once you let the smoke out, It's hard to put it back in

    On an original dash, yes. Lots of aftermarket dashes aren't as well designed.
