    Trying to replace my subwoofer on my 2021 Pro. The stock hole pattern is about 8.25 while the replacement Kicker sub is about 7.75.

    the subwoofer plastic cabinet has inserted thread posts. Can these be removed and relocated? If, how do I remove the posts? It seems like you can insert a small flat blades screwdriver to release something but I’m not yet successful at doing this.

    I called Crutcfield and they don’t have an adapter plate. Any suggestions on how to proceed?

    Throw a ring of foam tape under the new sub (your sub may even come with one) and drill some screws in. It’s a plastic enclosure. They will hold fine

    Thanks Destin. That’s what I am going to do.
