Question for someone with B&O

[Cormeister]

Wondering if someone with a B&O system would mind measuring the diameter of the B&O logo on the front dash speaker grills. I have the base sound system, and just replaced all speakers with JL Audio. The speakers came with a metal JL “badge” that appears to be similar in size as the B&O logo on the factory dash grills. If they are the same size, I’d like to order to B&O factory grills and install the JL badge over the B&O logo. Appreciate it!

I can get you the diameter by tomorrow if no one gives it to you by then

You're just looking for the diameter of the coin-sized B&O logo on the top front dash, right? It's 5/8" across.

Thank you, really appreciate you helping out! Looks like it's about 9/16", which is the exact size of the JL Audio badge. Guess it's safe to order the factory B&O dash grills and insert the JL badges. Thanks again!

That would be taking things to a whole new level of OCD - but I love it and it looks like you got yourself a good fit.

Lol, yup. Guess I can't read a ruler after 9:30 at night. At least I can take a decent picture, haha

I actually would love a vinyl or something to cover my B&O logos. 1 - I replaced them with Infinity reference speakers and 2 - The reflection they have on the inside of the windshield triggers my OCD

My wife was picture framer ten years ago. They couldn't hire people under about 30 because none of the applicants could read a ruler beyond inches.

So they got rulers and tapes with fractions printed on them.

Then came the problem of finding somebody that could add or subtract with fractions.

In case anyone is interested, the JL Audio badge fit perfectly in place of the B&O badge. The B&O badge pops right out, just need to remove the clip from the underside.
