Most major cities have local businesses that re-cone speakers. Start with the stereo shops and they will know who is the best local guy near you.

Unless you are going for O.E. gold ,with correct part numbers and date codes, I would recommend looking in to the reproductions from turnswitch.com . They offer the 3 speaker dash units that sound
much better than the originals ever did, in the correct 8 ohms with a small magnet so they fit , but made with a much higher standard and sound quality.

Good advice here... I spent a lot of money having my original speaker reconed and I am not sure what I was thinking... Pretty sure I will eventually remove it and throw it away... That's all its good for is the trash pile....
