Amir, if you dont want any cutting, you should go with 5.25" components. All you have to do is go to Home Depot or any hardware store and buy the foam tape which is used to seal doors and windows.
I bought MB Quart DSD216 cuz MB Quart website told me it would fit. It fits alrite but it needs a thick ass 3/4" spacer. Luckily, I got the tool and some MDF board to make the spacer. From that experience, I dont think any 6.5" would fit in stock opening and depth. Good luck

PS. try to install the components yourself to see you can break your own record

MWHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHHHAHHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHAHAHZHAAHAHAHAHAH


THAT IS FUCKED UP JOKE MAN, NEVER IN MY LIFE WOULD I TRY TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THIS!!!!

ok,,, so...i guess i need spacers...

any help on the speakers i choose though??

please, i need advice... should i go with the Infinity speakers, or the ones that 4pumped just got....or what??

please help guys,...and again, any disadvantages to spacers?..or cutting?

icy CL

there is no disadvantage to using spacers....if you can find the right ones or can make one. the disadvantage of cutting is if you want to put back the stock components, you might not be able to. also, you might end up cutting more than you'd want.

i have the infinity reference series 6.5. they fit without cutting. i had to remove the plastic basket where the stock speaker sits on but that's it. if ever i need to put back the stock components, i can. not sure what infinity's your talking about. kappas? i found the tweeters to harsh for my ears. mb quartz....you'll need spacers...and also tweeters are to harsh for my ears. infinity perfects have a depth of 2 3/4. you'll most likely need spacers.

icy CL

also, amir, i would personally stick with tweeters whose domes are made of silk. other materials, like aluminum, titanium have a tendency to make the highs very shrill and ear peircing. that's JMO. i think NOLACLS will back me up on this. yet, i'm sure there are metal domed tweeters out there that sound good....either i just haven't heard them or they're way off my price that i didn't bother listening to them.

NOLACLS

Icy you are correct...I personally like the silk dome over the others. As far as cutting I had to cut my doors. I started off with the new kappa's...not the green ones and they required cutting of the door. Then I got the CDT's because the tweets on the kappa's were way to bright! I have a 3/4" MDF spacer and the magnet of the 6.5 is almost hitting the glass. I might try a 1" but I am not sure if it will clear the door panel when it is put back on...does anyone have a 1" spacer???? I cut the door myself using a dremil tool and I was able to leave the stock holes so when I put the blowz speakers back in they will be able to use the stock holes...so no problems there. If you dont want to do too much modding to the door go with the 5 1/4 but you cant fit 6.5 with a little cutting. Just make sure you put something on the bear metal so it will not rust.

where are you buying your speakers?

just curious


sanjay

yayaya143

you like the infinity kappas?????? i hated them, paid $200 for them for my 98 trd camry and they were the worst speakers i've ever had. My sonys which was half the price played so much louder and clearier with a better bass.

amir was here

yayaya143...hahaha funny name, cause i always used to say that to my ex-girlfriend like that...

"yeah yeah yeah i love you"



Anyways, yeah i got the vega's..i was REEEEAALLL close to buying perfects like 3 weeks ago, good thing i didnt, i just realized you need a REAL good amp for that stuff..

i also saved some seriuos cash from not buying the infinty's 3 weeks ago

ssain, i am buying them from a local store, Chase Audio, they ARE SOOO CHEAP at that store for these particular speakers..the CHEAPEST online price i found for them was 339 u.s.

I bought them for 349 CANADAIN!!! meaning i bought them for 219.377 USD

ShortCL-SMan

did you have to cut any for the vegas?

amir was here

i have no clue man, shit, i forgot to ask the installer..

i left my car there, went to school, came back, and install was done..

BTW, the speakers are TOOOO LOUD!!!
they are REAAALLLLY CLEAR, damn, i cant stop blasting the music..

I am REALLLY happy with these speakers!

Makes it sound like BOSE stock shit, was a JOOOKE!

ShortCL-SMan

Yeah i Just went out and bought the vegas 602's and the 1693 (6x9). waiting to install them soon, I will have a Rockford Fosgate (i think 400*4) running them.

amir was here

i was really close to getting the same amp...

but i wanted 125 per channel, not 100 per channel...

if i were you..the 600?..or 800 fosgate amp

i cant imagine anything louder than what i have now..

SilverKnight

anything aftermarket can make the "BOSE stock shit" "premium sound system" a joke. Even 20 buck speakers have a big chance at it.

BOSE SUCKS
