Outdoor speaker covers
Just had the insurance adjuster out to check our hail damage to our home roofs and if there was any damage to our 5th wheel and all we could find is the speaker covers on our 2010 Montana got broken. Any one have any idea where I can find replacements for these covers or do I have to replace the entire speaker and cover. I have seen some people replace them with marine speakers and covers.
Thanks

The speakers furnished are a little low on the quality side. Given the opportunity, I would replace with some mid quality marine speakers, of course then there is Bose.

If they are the Jensen speakers, I would look upon this as an opportuntiy to put something more worthwhile in their place. You will want marine speakers and any search engine will show a vast array of options

Geez, guys, why outside speakers? It has been one of our pet peeves for the last 40 years...fellow campers who HAVE to have music or TV blaring away outside in the camp ground while the rest of us came for peace and quiet! In fact, even when "quietly" playing the sound carries and can really spoil the mood. And so many times those same people are not even outside to listen or watch! I know most of you are not those offensive ones I'm talking about, but you all know they are out there...

I had a lengthy post composed regarding the use of our outside entertainment center (with speakers) on our newly ordered rig, but I deleted it out of common courtesy. I will leave it that my opinion differs from the previous post. The OP asked for repair advice on his speakers, not a response as to why his rig even has the speakers and whether they should be used.

Now that's what I call a couple of real Christian responses. [

From experience when one of my boat speaker (Clarion) covers got nailed. Some shops that install stereos and tint windows sometimes have speaker covers left over that may fit that they will sell outright. Like said ... now would be a good time to just upgrade. And furthermore ... I'd upgrade to swivel flower pots that don't bother anyone camped near you.

Hmmmmmm interesting, I guess I never really used the speakers but now with them blown apart by hail there are 2 - 6 1/2 inch holes in the side of my otherwise perfect 5th wheel that I would like to fill. I think I found some that will fit and fix the problem
Thanks everyone for your input.

I heartily recommend Bluetooth headsets. That way you don't have someone looking like Ozz yelling "turn the noise down".

Found Replacement?
Restez, I know it's been awhile but were you able to find the covers or just something similar?
If you found some, do you know if they might still carry them?
I'm in the same boat and I don't want to upgrade, I just want to replace the cover or enclosure if necessary.

Since our unit had no outside speakers, I install a marine radio with outside speakers. We use it almost every trip. Don't get the music haters out there. We are very respectful to others when its on. I will walk around in all directions to see if it can be heard from other camp sites and adjust the volume if needed.
Also, we chose our sites very carefully and try to get a site on an end where there is no site on the door side of our camper. We try not to camp in parks where it is just site after site with 10 foot between them.
