Default Speaker Plates?

Ok so i got some new 6x9 speakers for my accord yet they dont' fit the damn hole so does anyone know where i can get some plates for it? cause it looks really tacky with the sitting in boxes on my rear dash thing.

i tried all over but i have no idea what they're called and ya.. i figured someone on here must know where they sell them.

thanks

you need the plates from an EX... they hold 6x9's... or take the plates that are in there (the 6.5 ones) and cut the hole larger with a jig saw to accept the 6x9 speakers.

i tried looking for other EX models to steal from but they didn't work.. i was pretty pissed i walked around the junkyard with my 6x9 in hand and nothing fit.

i find it so hard to beleive no one makes plates for these!! i should do it myself if i weren't so lazy

my other idea is just to drill my boxes in with some wood screws and say screw it.
