i know a 5.25 is the speaker size but i remember someone say that you can fit a 6.5.....is that true?

Din

yes it will, when i had my TL i had 6.5 in the front.

I have 6.5's also. All you need is a trim ring. You can get them from www.selectproducts.com.

i dont see those on that site

esCarbonie

most install shops will have them around anyway and will include them in the install price.

96TL

I see them. Click on Select products on the left, then click Fiberglass Accessories.

96TL: did you purchase yours from them?? so you sure it fits on our car?? cuz im about to buy it from that site right now... let me know!!

96TL

No I didnt. I got mine from a local shop. Those should work out fine though.

TLBaller

well if your not sure then forget it

You could probably modify the factory speaker basket.

I want to do the same thing. I am using my stock head unit but i want to change the door panel speakers to 6.5" (cuz I have a pair just sitting around). Do you guys think that it is a good idea? Will the sound actually improve with this speakers compared to the stock ones? Please advise.

esCarbonie

it'll get better... but it depends on what you're looking to get out of it. with those 4 ohms coming out of our weak head units, nothing is going to bang, but they ought to sound better at higher volumes if they're good speakers. I did this, but I did a whole front component set, two tweeters (on dash) and two door 6.5"s, and replaced the 6x9's, all JBL GTO's.... it sounds much better, but doesnt really bang, our H.U's werent meant to handle that loud shhh in 96

COOL! thanks guys....! i guess i'll be the guinea pig and try ordering those of that web site....if i can't find any rings from the local shops over here.....

Wampum

TLBaller
