KX3 Speaker Screw size

Keith Heimbold
I am working on installing my KX3 in my truck and I am curious what size screw is used between the case and speaker mount. We are examining ways to physically mount the KX3 into my silverado.  The mount we are likely using is a Panavice.

Thanks,

Keith

Thanks Ron for the advice. We found a suitable way to mount the rig. My guess is that we will need to revisit this down the road. We are about 35% complete with the install. When it is done I will post some pictures of it on my qrz and add it to my blog.
