Khhol626 Posted November 13, 2023 Share Posted November 13, 2023 Greetings, I just got a pair of Cornwalls over the weekend that both need new dust caps. I am trying to figure out what size and best place to order from. Any, insight would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnA Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I don't think it's critical. Where can you buy such a thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Appears original had no lips but I can only seem to find ones with lips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue sadly is the size of the no lip. 2.5 inches seems most ideal but hard to find. Simply speakers has them but on back order. Possibly 2.3 may work but idk. I got a lip pair coming tomorrow. Will see how they look. Otherwise may just wait for right no lip or try 2.3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
