I think I'm going to use 4 of them for my 12"s, but I'm limited in space. So I'm looking for someone who has them that can possibly take a measurement for me. I'm looking to find out how wide they are? In the picture they sit outside of the subs, but they seem to sit quite far out from the subs. I only have 14.5" wide on the face where the subs are going. So I need to make sure they are going to fit. Thx for any help guys. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

They sit about 1" from each side of the outer diameter of the sub. I would say they'd barely fit on a face with 14.5"

I can measure and make sure when i get home, if I remember.

If you could that would be great. That's going to be close to use those then. Hmmmm....... 1" tall is going to be just fine. They will be going on 4 Rl-p's. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I really hate to be a pain, but could you get it from outside end to end please? I need to see if it's going to fit on the face space I have. Like this....

Your right with the bigger SPL subs out today I could see it being a problem. I don't it will be as much with my subs though. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

These grills will allow room for some major excursion. If it's not enough, you can always add spacers to where the grill mounts.

I am sorry, I should have made myself more clear and I do see where you think that because I said center to center. What I should have said was I mesured from the outside center to outside center, I meant I mesured in the middle of the grill but didn't say from the outside, which is what I did.

13.5 from outside center to outside center.

Oh ok, that's good then. That means they will fit, wooo hooo. Thx again for the help.
I'll search through eBay to see if I can find any there. Otherwise I will just get them from PE.
