RetroSound 4-Inch Surface-Mount 2-Way Speakers TS42 - 1968-1986 Ford Bronco
The RetroSound TS42 surface-mount 2-way speaker system provides an ideal audio upgrade for 1968 to 1986 Ford Bronco models where factory speaker locations are limited or impractical. Designed to deliver clear full-range sound without cutting into original interior panels, these compact speaker enclosures mount neatly under the dashboard, onto kick panels, or along interior cabin framework.
Featuring a 4-inch woofer paired with an integrated tweeter, each speaker delivers clean audio, crisp highs, and excellent vocal clarity on or off the road. The rugged compact enclosures feature multi-angle steel U-brackets with threaded side knobs, allowing secure positioning in demanding 4WD environments while preserving your Bronco's classic interior.

Important Safety & Mounting Precautions:
- Secure Mounting: Ensure brackets are firmly anchored to a solid structural surface using suitable hardware. In the event of a collision, sudden braking, or off-road driving, unsecured speakers can become dangerous projectiles.
- Care When Drilling & Screwing: Always inspect behind dashboards, kick panels, or bulkheads before drilling holes or driving fasteners. Ensure you do not puncture electrical wiring harnesses, fuel lines, brake lines, or structural components.
- Avoid Obstructions: Position enclosures so they do not obstruct driver sightlines, pedal travel, steering operation, gear levers, handbrakes, or glove box openings.
- Occupant Clearance: Mount speakers clear of head-impact zones and airbag deployment pathways.
- Note: For internal / inside use only, the speakers are not weather or water resistant.
