Angry Need Help Replacing door speakers????

I just bought new 6.5 speakers for my TSX and I am having trouble installing the speakers. I am wondering if the panels just need to be popped off or if I need to disasemble the whole door panel. Help would be greatly appriciated.

You're in luck- I just happened to be doing that today, and took pictures of one of the doors as I replaced my speakers. Step by step pictures can be found on my website. Enjoy!

Outstanding work, Mojo. You rock.

So what kind of 6.5s did you and jondel85 get (and how much did you spend)?

Thanks

I got Polk EX365's for all the doors from Crutchfield for $70/pair (were on sale through last week).

My rear deck 6x9's are Polk GXR69's for $60/pair, also from Crutchfield.

If you order from them, call them and tell them you have a TSX, and they'll throw in the Honda/Acura 1990+ Speaker Harnesses for free. They also try to throw in some brackets, but they were worthless. You might want to see if they will give you some 1/2" spacers for the 6.5" speakers instead.

They make a huge difference, for a total of $200. And if you want to save $20 (and save me some as well!!), use my referral code of pc334-x500h-5c2g1 if you've never ordered from Crutchfield before. If you use the referral, great, if not, that's fine, too.

Hope this helps!

You think 3-ways are really a good idea in the rear deck since its only low freq going back there? Anyways those polks look pretty good. I emailed them to see if them will ship to Canada. I doubt it but its worth a try.
