Abstract

See full text

A speaker support bar supports a pair of speakers and speaker covers above a vehicle headliner. A lamp may also be mounted into the support bar. The speaker support is positioned vertically above the headliner, and thus the uniform appearance of the headliner is preserved. The speaker support extends between lateral support ends which transfer the weight of the speakers to the headliner over a wide area, and near the vehicle frame. Thus, the headliner is able to easily support the weight of the speakers. A seal incorporated into the headliner defines a sound chamber. The invention also facilitates the pre-assembly of the headliner and its sound system prior to attachment of the headliner to the vehicle.
