Were dual rear speakers available on 69 b bodies and were they standard with AM/8 track player?

Seth, my '69 GTX has the factory AM/8-Track and no rear speakers, (dual or single). Pretty sure the AM/8-Track came standard with the dual FRONT (in the dash top) outboard area and a single oval center dash top speaker. The speaker crossover was on the underside of the glove box.

My A12 Road Runner has the rear speakers with the fader in the dash to the left of the ashtray.

The A12 RR does NOT have the dual) dash top outboard speakers, only the rears and one oval dash (front) center speaker.

Hey Mike, I think the 8 track was the only radio option that got the three speaker dash which my car does have. I also have the fader under the dash but does the presence of the fader mean dual rear speakers? Could the fader be had with one speaker in the back?

the wiring diagrams for the 8-track STEREO (420/R22) call them: CHANNEL "A" & CHANNEL "B"
& the speakers: LEFT - CENTER - RIGHT

the crossover is set for:
LEFT CHANNEL "B", CENTER CHANNEL "A", RIGHT CHANNEL "B"

what CHANNEL does a single rear speaker (426/R31) receive?

was there dual rear speakers available on a 1968-'70 b-body? what's the "SALES CODE" and/or the price?

I have an original unmolested 1970 b-body with 8 track and the rear speaker fader option and it is one speaker on the left side.

There were no rear dual speakers in the B-Body cars. The left opening was for a speaker and the passenger side opening was for the rear defogger. The only stereo available in a B-Body was the AM 8 track and the stereo speakers were in the dash. The repro rear shelf panels with dual speaker slots are incorrect but work for someone who wants to install dual speakers in the back.

From an eBay ad for an 8-Track AND a rear single driver's side (my A12 is this and 5"x7" not 6"x9" in size) speaker with fader wiring harness:

Original Mopar 4 Speaker stereo speaker wiring, filter/splitter box and front-rear fader for 1968-70 Dodge & Plymouth 'B' body cars. These special harnesses were used on cars that came from the factory with an AM/8 track stereo radio and a rear seat speaker; so it is actually a combination of two options: R22 AM/Stereo 8 track radio (with three speakers) and R31 single rear seat speaker. Contrary to what you may have heard or read, there was never a "5 speaker" option (with dual rear speakers) or an AM/FM stereo radio option for the 1968-70 B body cars; the AM/FM radio was mono only (R21) with just one speaker (two if R31 was ordered). This is the "maximum" stereo option speaker wiring harness for the B body of those years, and is actually made of four parts: 3 speaker dash wiring harness, special stereo front to rear fader control, splitter box for center speaker, and rear seat speaker wiring harness. Also included in this auction is the special clip that secures the wiring in the trunk. No cuts or modifications at all to these genuine original Chrysler parts, and they all work perfect; control has no static in it at all (I hooked it up and played music through it). This is a very rare harness/set-up. See my other auctions for more Mopar parts, I will combine shipping to save you money on multiple purchases.
