Front Speaker Size?

[USSEnterprise]

What size speakers go in the front doors? Thet appear like they should be 6x8s, but I'm reading about 6.5s here, and when I opened the doors, there were some crappy 5.25s inside.

What do I need to get for this car?

Joe, most folks remove the stockers and mounting plate, and fit adapters made of MDF or comparable material to the opening and use 6 1/2" speakers. The rears are 6X9s.

I used 6 1/2" but you had to drill new holes never had a mounting plate.

I put polk audio speakers in the front, back and front tweeters. I spent a total of $300 for all the speakers and it sounds better than i could ever ask. I got them at circuit city. Most people think i have a sub in the trunk but its just the 6x9's in the back.



Ps. I'm an audiophile so you know sounding good is good

in my old svx i had 6 1\2 at the front and the speaker couldn't fit under the door panel . infinity reference\tweeters , did it work out good for you ?

by the way is your polk audio speaker came with tweeter ?

I just put 6.5" Pioneers in mine. They were dirt cheap. On sale for $29 at Future Shop in Canada. I am very happy with them. They are a nice complement to the original 6X9s in the back that put out a fair amount of bass. I took out the original bracket, cut out the original speaker, drilled holes and put the new speakers into the pot and it worked great.

I believe 6-1/2 or 6-3/4 will fit.

No i bought the tweeters seperately.

I have 6x9's in the back 6.5's (i believe?) in the front tweeters on the dash and a mid level jvc head unit and it sounds better than i could imagine.

And im quite picky with my sound quality...

cool then i'll try some polks , i'll remove my speaker to make sure it will fit under the door panel, i have seen some 5 1\4, but they are wayyyyyyyyyy too small for my ears, if ya say 6 1\2 i'll go for them

The first one's are my front door panels (6 1/2), the second (6x9's) are my rears and the last ones are my 1" tweeters

Trust me you get that set up and you wont be dissapointed.

i've got polk db series in both the front and back. 6 1/2 components up front and 6x9 in the rear deck. they fit with no issues and sound great. i did have to make mdf adaptors for the front and enlarge the holes on the back

Back in the day, I had aluma-pro (sp) components installed. I had issues with depth clearance and the shop suggested those. they were best 6.5 inchers I have ever heard.
