Default Grills for 6.5'' lowers ?
I know this has been discussed several times before but im also aware new speakers come out just about daily. So with that being said what are some known grills that will work in the lowers ?

Thanks

I went to opentip.com & used the wire mesh grills. Part# SKU:PEX 269-390. These worked for my application & were cheap.

How far off the speaker do they sit ? I’m using dB drive motos. Those ones off eBay look like they will work but it’s like over a month for shipping.
