Source for speaker grills??

Anyone know a good place to find "small" speaker grills that would work well with a cabinet?
Everything I've found is big and used for subwoofer stuff. What I would like is the small ones used by 1UP on his Pacmameia, but Radi Shack dosen't have them listed anymore. I need the grill to cover up the holes for my Creative Labs 2.1 system. Thanks

Find a local car radio installation shop. They often have just exactly what you are looking for in a scrap box. Ask nicely and they'll probably give it to you for free. I did this exactly yesterday and got four grills Two Clarion and two Kenwood... a sweet deal

Don't know if 6" x 9" is too big, but if not:

I don't know if there is a U-Pull-It auto parts (junkyard) near where you are, but the ones near me usually have everything you could imagine for car stereos lying in piles in corners or still in cars.
A phillips head screwdriver and $3 could probably get you any speaker cover you want.

Thanks guys, I think I have an idea how to use the grills that came with the speakers, and if that dosen't work I'll go with a set from partsexpress. You know, I might be able to find a really cool st at a junkyard, thanks for the ideas.

Has anyone seen the Radio Shack speaker grills, like the ones on 1UPs cab at any of their local Rat Shacks? I called all the ones near where I live and couldn't find any. I really want to get a set of them!

jabba hit on the mark on this one. any car stereo shop will have a box full of 'em and they look pro when installed on a cab. most of the generic speaker grills i'm seen look just that, generic.
just my opinion, ymmv.
