by the looks of the sprue, and depending if it's about the size of a regular sprue, I'd guess maybe 15". Since they're jumbo....but I'm not sure. Hopefully that helped! :)

Indeed, i saw those on a 1/24 model a while ago, they looked HUGE.

i don't know much about subs that are available at hobby shops. But i would just scratch build them from epoxy putty ;) IMO

4 Black Dual Speaker Boxes

Actually, you could be infringing on copyright laws there bill, those are property of Hoppin' Hydros. Of course you can copy them for yourself, there's nothing against that, but don't copy them to sell them. You could get hit with HUGE fines. Plus, you're taking business away from HH. Don't do it. Plagiarism Sucks.

PrimeSuspect, just save up some money, and order a bunch from hoppin hyrdos, then you could have all sizes!!

If you're going to do that, don't mention it here.

If you have left over round headlight bezels, you could use those for speakers.
