It looks like the second generation pie pan style speakers have the rear bracket attached with those metal pins that you can drive out, but then you would have to press out the pole piece to remove the coil. Fortunately it looks like it's easy to remove the cones in speakers like this as it has a series of screws holding the cone, and cardboard gasket, in place without glue, so you can access the pins. Still a little acetone around the rim will help should it stick. I was just wondering whether the wire I found on fleabay was being correctly represented, is it actually #36 gauge, not whether #36 gauge will work? From what I read it's not hard to rewind a field coil, just time consuming, finding the break is always the first course of action.
Regards
Arran

The cutout is for the speaker. Here's a photo from a different set.
