hi, sorry for the delay but I'm on vacation...😊😊😊
as for the rear ceiling speakers, the hole template is already present, on my car there are also the pre-arranged recesses, this wiring reaches the connector in the left rear pillar, to drill the headliner I used a 98 mm cutter,
first I identified the center of the circle, then from below I used the cutter by turning it counterclockwise, therefore using the teeth on the rounded side, BE CAREFUL. otherwise you will tear the fabric of the ceiling.



as regards the speaker grilles, they do not exist as an original spare part, hunter prestige uk helped me, they sent me two perfect grilles reproduced like the originals, they are installed in two parts, one is glued to the panel, the other fits in with pins.

cheers

marco

Thanks for detail info and pics. Do you know the part# for the grills that goes interior side of roof liner? I think adding rear ceiling speakers will add nicer rear fill.

not exist
Does that mean the only OEM option is to purchase a headliner with the grilles already installed?
