Ok. I checked crutchfield to see what size my factory speakers were in my car to find out they say 3 different sizes with work.. wth? It varies from 5-1/4 to 6-1/2 and even 6-3/4.. It is a 2003 VW Jetta with the factory monsoon. If anyone could tell me for sure what they are before I attempt to buy some I'd appreciate it.. now on the topic of buying them.. what would you suggest..
Front Stage.. Rear Fill..
Speakers will go in stock locations. There is a mid-bass driver in all 4 doors and a seperate tweeter on top of each door. Trying to keep the price affordable.. so the cheaper the better.
Chad is right - just check those mothers Then there is another thing a 6.5 from one company could be bigger/smaller than a 6.5 from another company so the best way to do all this is measure your holes and get the drawings with the size specs from the speaker manufacturer
bah.. i was trying to avoid taking my door panels off since everything on my car is a pain to work on.. i do need rear fill.. just enough to be heard because next year im going to try and run SQ at the local shows as long as SPL.. my main focus is to try to stage the sound in the middle of the dash while mounting everything in the stock location.. i might have to try and fab up a fiberglass pod that angles the stock door location up and inward to achieve that
