    P38 Harmon Kardon Speakers

    The bass speaker in the drivers door on my 2001 P38 is dead, so I need to replace it, given it will easier and possibly cheaper to get an aftermarket speaker. Does anyone know the size and also the ratttings of the bass speakers in the Harmon Kardon setup up the P38s?
