Old JBL recones

Hi all.  I have a friend with a pair of JBL 2215 drivers that need reconing.  JBL has informed him that they no longer make cones for these drivers.  Is there an option?  Does anyone know of an aftermarket source?  Or someone to contact that would help?
These used to be mine, and they are fine drivers.  There should be some way to have them refurbished.
Thanks,
Bill

The name of that Berkeley JBL facility is Audivex. The phone number is (510) 527-1391.

Thanks for the responses.  I have relayed this information to my friend, and he is very appreciative.  I think he will contact the local-to-him Berkeley facility first and work outward from there.

This was my first large speaker system.  2215's w/passive radiators and a TAD compression high end.  Really kicked with modest electronics.  I hope the 2215s can be brought back to life.

If not mistaken for what your going to pay for recones you can buy on the bay ready to go with original cones..not such a great speaker to begin with IMO..much better options out there for what your going to spend

missioncoonery-thanks for the response.  A quick look on EBAY reminded me that there are foam surround repair kits.  Might be the ticket.
A  senior moment is what I'll claim.
