Title: Door Speaker Wire clip
Post by: Angela on January 14, 2025, 04:09:48 PM

The clip shown in the photo below was found in the driver side of my Dearborn-built 70 Mach one, beneath the door panel. The clip holds the door speaker wire away from the window regulator. I do not know whether it is an original clip or not, but I put it back during restoration.

My questions:
(1) Does the clip shown appear similar to that others have found in this area?
(2) Does anyone know where I can obtain another clip similar, for my passenger door? I have not yet been able to find a Ford PN, or similar clip available from a source such as AMK

Thanks!

I have never seen a clip in the hole in your picture.  The door wiring for a speaker and the courtesy light in the Mach door panels attaches to the inside wall of the door frame (on left, about 12" long plastic shell).  The loop strap (on right) attaches inside the door frame (between the hinges).  This routing keeps the wiring away from the window/regulator action.
