Door speakers
Can anyone tell me if the front and rear door speakers are the same ?
My drivers door speaker is blown. I've been offered a rear one for very cheap but not sure if there differently shaped or not regarding fitting and clearance. I've noticed recently some bits are starting to get a bit pricey for these cars due spares starting to become a little rarer.

V70 Speakers
Did you ever manage to resolve this?
I don't know if the front and rear are different but the only difference between left and right appears to be the mounting brackets. If you look at the back of them you will see that the orientation of left and right is only because of the wiring connector. The position of the speaker in its mounting can be changed by twisting it from the mounting and relocating it. There are four "tags or clips" that locate and hold the speaker to the mount. It is a few years since I changed my speakers (and fitted a pair of JBL co-axial) but from memory you need to twist the speaker and use a flat bladed screwdriver or a pair of pliers to encourage each of the tabs to release, then the speaker twists and can be released from its mount and then relocated. I did try and load some pictures of this but the system said that there was a security issue, but if you remove a pair you should see what I have tried to explain. HTH
