Default Speaker bar mounting brackets

Found a speaker bar at the JY for 20 bucks and picked it up. Unfortunately It didn't come with any type of mounting hardware and don't know where I can find any. Does anyone have any pics or ideas on where I can get them? Thanks.

If it's pre '97' the sound bar is held in place on either side by the trim just as the headliner is. The tabs at the ends tuck into the trim. The center is held by the same stud and push-nut as the rear dome light. At least this is how mine is.

Its for a 94. Do you have a picture of the stud you're talking about?

This is exactly how mine mounts on my '96.
You have to remove the rear cargo light, and you'll see what he explained.

If your jeep is pre '97 and the sound bar is pre '97 it will work no matter what. I installed one from a 94 into my 92. The rear dome-light mounts are what hold it up.

Grab it anyway. Can always resell on ebay. lol

My XJ doesn't have a rear dome light to begin with.

Pre-98 at least. My 97 uses the same earlier sound bar.

Ah, well then that's a problem. Time to get creative.

Ah, cool... I wasn't sure when they went to the integrated design. I do know that I like it a lot better than these earlier ones. I'll be swapping mine out at some point.
