Speaker size is 5.25".

Not sure what other dimensions you are looking for.

Calm down please. I have the brackets in my car. I spent 120 bucks for them so that I could have the rare option. When I get the chance I will take measurements.

What I needed to know is what specifically you needed, I'm assuming you want every measurement possible of the whole thing and not just the speaker housing part of the bracket?

Yes, he wants the all the dimensions of the actual bracket. It's a bit of a pain in the **** to measure all this out but I have done exercises like this before with success to try to recreate a bracket. (Parking pole, Gathers centre tweeters, etc.) In some cases I eyeballed them on-screen and made a template in AutoCAD, but it is considerably easier if you measure the actual item.

Holy schnauzers batman!!! Alrighty, you need way more dimensions than I figured. Some of those measurements I can't say I know why you want but I will do my best none the less.

I was hoping I didn't have to take the brackets out but looks like for this one, I will need to. Please be patient, I may be able to do this, this weekend.

Just want you to know I haven't forgotten about you. Wife kept me pretty busy this last weekend. I will take my sockets and screwdrivers to work with me and pull it on lunch and start getting you some measurements.

Will have it done before the end of this week if not by the end of tomorrow.

Anyways. One thing your pictures don't depict is the angles. They are not 45 degree (right) angles. I will take some close up pics so you can get that too.

Also, where the curve is and where it changes size on the sides really isn't that important, there is lots of room in there for a practically square bracket if you wish. I will provide the measurements anyway, just saying.

Code:
A: 2 3/8"                           M: 1 3/8"
B: 4 1/2"                           N: 9/16"
C: 1 1/8"                           O: 2 5/8"
D: 1 1/16" and 1"                   P: 1 1/8"
E: 6 1/2"                           Q: 1 3/16"
F: 2 3/4"                           R: 1 1/4"
G: 8"                               S: 1"
H: 1 13/16"                         T: 3/8"
I: 4 1/4"                           U: 1/4
J: 1"                               V: 4 15/16" (5")
K: 3/4"                             W: 4 5/8"
L 1 3/4"
Okay the measurements to do with the screw holes are taken from the center of the holes. So A, O and H are to and from the center of the screw holes.

The width of the bracket (E) is from the beginning of the bend not the actual edge of the material. My last pic shows how they just folded the material down for added strength. Also of note the material is 1/16" steel I believe.

The height of the bracket (G) is from the bend of the top tab to the bottom edge of the bracket just like your lines.

The top tab riser measurement (D) has two lengths. In one of my pics you can see it's angled by 1/16 of an inch. On the bracket all marked up (left bracket) the left side is 1 inch while the right side riser is the 1 and 1/16th of an inch.

Also measurement L is very rough. The cornering is very rounded and choosing where on either corner to start and stop is pretty varied so in my opinion that measurement is pointless. In it's place I think the measurement of the left riser edge of the upper tab to the outer right edge of the bracket (measurement F on the right side) is more useful. The offset of the left edge of the tab riser to the right edge of the bracket is 1/4". Oh and the width of the tab both on the riser and the top is 1" wide. You didn't request that measurement but will be handy for the offset I just mentioned.

And measurement W is the width you requested (that I think is pretty pointless) above O that I forgot to put a letter on.

I also forgot to measure how far from the edge the bottom two screw holes are. But I can grab that later. The two at the top and the two small holes on the bottom hold a plastic piece so I can just measure the screw tops from the top (left when installed) to the bottom (right when installed) and get you that measurement instead. That is if you even are concerned about the extra plastic housing that resides under the rear speaker cover plate.

Oh, the 3 screw holes at the top. The farthest left one is lower than the other two by 1/8".

Measurement N is the bottom plate riser (the black arrows you added).

Also forgot to mention, measurement C (the bottom plate with the 3/8" holes) was measured from the bottom end to the back of the material after the bend. So it's got the 1/16" extra for the thickness of the material and whatever the extra length is from the bend itself.

And lastly, the two large holes on the bottom of the bracket that don't have threads are just shy of 3/8" in diameter.

I have included pics of the angled parts so you should be able to print out the pic and use a protractor or builders square to get your angles. The first pic is the bottom plate while the second pic is the top 1" tab.

You know after doing this, and sitting hear for a half hour doing up this post... A beer and a pizza is definitely in order. It's too bad the beer would be drunk and the pizza cold and half eaten by the time it got here.

Cheers and hope this helps.

Rofl... I almost did do it in centimeters but then said screw it, yall can use a converter. Also, this was an ebay purchase and came from the states so I figured it would be closer to US Standard sizes, and by the looks.... it is.

Naw, if it's Honda, it's in metric. Only exception on a car might be the spark plug socket size.

Don't forget that there are other markets plus other styles of speaker bracket that also fit in that quarter panel area. This style was sold in NZ, AUS, and Canada, and other styles were sold in Europe and Japan (dual-speaker style brackets).

Good to know, was wondering about that double speaker bracket OP posted.

There is sooooo much I don't know about Honda it's not even funny. Part of my nature I suppose, jack of all trades.... Master of none.

Do you even fabricate bro? Seriously get yourself a Dremel and some I'm assuming 1/4 sheet metal and create your own piece. All you would need is a speaker and some patience.

Yes. I will made it wit 2mm sheet metal. I will not made the same brackets like original but they will be almost same. I will upload picture when I made.
And now I have to choice the speaker because my old speakers are 6*9" and not enough space in panel. I now hesitate speaker between 13 cm. or 16.5 cm.
