W123 Replacement Rear Speakers

Does anyone know of a brand/model that fits our three screw design? Or a model that can be easily retrofitted so the speaker cap can cover flat? Very hard to find with the many "cartoonish" looking aftermarket speakers.


NEVER MIND!

I put MB-Quart speakers in my '85 300D. The 5" rears took a tiny bit of Dremel modification so I could use the stock speaker covers; thus, the car continued to look original.

I'm running 6" Rockford-Fosgates. They have a black metal mesh cover.

The short answer is no. I've tried all sorts of speakers in the back of the 123 and have yet to find a pair with 3 or 6 holes that are an exact fit.
