Guys I have just acquired a pair of M75s. One of the front covers is hanging by only two of the dowels as the others were broken or missing.

 

Any suggestions as to where I can buy replacements? Ive just bought some off eBay (Monacor Front Dowels for Speakers) that I thought would do the job but they are a different size.

 

Thanks in advance (they sound fantastic connected to my Beocenter 7002.

Difficult to find fitting dowels! Has been asked here before but I've never seen a perfect solution.

Some glue or screw wall plugs normally used for screws in place. I've also read about someone using sticky magnets.

I would love a good solution (3d print? reproduction?) So I'll keep an eye on this thread.

Hello there. I too had this problem a few years ago. They are quite delicate and snap easily. What I did was just replace them all with those small discs of velcro, it works fine.
