Speaker Spacers for Touring Model

I made some speaker spacers tonight for my Z. Most of the pics I've seen of others using other spacers seem to have been for the Base or Base/Sport models.

Default Speaker Spacers for Touring Model

I made some speaker spacers tonight for my Z. Most of the pics I've seen of others using other spacers seem to have been for the Base or Base/Sport models. In the Touring model, the Bose speakers are 6x9's and have a different bracket which is raised much higher. It didn't look like those spacers would fit the Touring as I didn't see the same screw holes.

I've included a template for others but you don't want to use this pic of the template as it's been resized. If you need the actual size template, send me a PM.

the only thing i would suggest is if you had cut out for the 6.5 closer to the bottom, as the holes in the door are closer to the bottom.

I am not sure why you used an adapter to include the plastic piece would of been better just to use a new one as a full spacer. That is what I am going to do for the set I am making.

So this allows you to put 6x9" speakers in the door of a 2012 370Z Touring model with bose and navigation?

(I'll be replacing the head unit, adding amps and subwoofer as well)

No, this allows a Bose car to run 6.5" round speakers. If you already have 6x9's you could just bolt them to the bracket.
