Thank you Mark ;
I'd forgotten all about the importance of 'phasing' multiple speakers....
I looked at the Clarion site and they have a variety of 4 ohm automotive application speakers .
There's a decent size flange so making it hold tightly in place shouldn't be too difficult .
The speaker is now held with just one screw and no buzz/rattles .
I'll have ti hunt up the old original speaker I recently took out of my '84 Coupe and measure it for the proper size then go price these things up .
I wonder if I can manage to squeeze the 5.5" one into my 1969 VW Beetle ? I know good speakers make old tech (this one is a 6 volt antique AM thing) radios sound pretty good .
I'm hoping to get back to the Beetle this Spring .

Clarions were pretty good, but a few things: it needs to snuggle down so it doesn't foul the grill, it needs to be held solidly in place to avoid vibration and it needs to be wired so that the speakers are polarized. That is, + and - need to match. If you are not sure simply reverse one channel's wires and listen for improved bass and separation.
