Does anyone have a trick for getting very tight grills on in ceiling speakers? I was going to cut a small V on the grill where it is bulging out and preventing the gril to go in. |

That's been known to work (cutting a v in about three or four places and bending accordingly but if the grill will go on and stay it doesn't really need to be flush. |

Thanks for the advice Jim, I was concerned if cutting a V might twist the metal up in such a way that I never could get them on. Anyone else have any experience with tight grills. |

yes, I think a firm but jentle spanking is in order for those tight, grills? yes were talking about grills, OK let me think,,,,,,,,,,what about a thin peace of bent metal and use it like a shoe horn, or lube it, come on casey get inventive hear, maybe a small dremel tool and slowly work it untill it snaps in to the tightness you want, ohh yes |

Tried "a firm but jentle spanking is in order for those tight, grills", but that did not work. Cut one small V half way down the side wall, where I had marked with a pencil at the point of a bulge. The grills went on with out much struggle. |
