what kind of speakers?
Wednesday, March 30, 2005 8:28 AM
hey there, im just wondering what size speakers i could fit into the dash openining on a 92 sunbird, since the 3.5" speakers that are in there right now arent even full-range, they are just tweeters... so, has anybody put in actual speakers in there?

i took out my crappy 3.5's too.. my tweeters sit in there right now (with some minor modification.. just to fill up some space and make them sit right.

not trying to jack the post on you, just a side question. any of you guys attempt putting speakers in your doors? just curious.. i have Rockford Fanatic X mids and tweeters, the mids are 6.5" and i dont really know anyone who can fiberglass kick panels for me. looks like some work would be involved for this, not to mention sound proofing. but just curious.

somewhat related topic i guess.. but if i jacked your post Mike i apologize..

push hard. Mine's really hard to get right, its easier to sit in the driver's seat and have someone do it from the passenger's. I don't even use my side mirrors anymore, the passenger one is impossible to get how I want it, and the drivers is always pointed at the ground to keep headlights out of my face at night. I just use the rearview.

i have a '91 Sunbird, i put my 6x9s in from the bottom. i took the crap factory 6x9s out and i used the factory 6x9 brackets to hold my new 6x9s in from the bottom. so i pretty much layed down in my trunk looking up at the bottom of the rear deck and got started with the new 6x9s

lol yea exactly... its ALOT easier to just tackle the 6x9 situation from the bottom

yes sir, snap 'em right in underneath the rear deck

when i put the 6x9's in my car i actually tore the bcak seat out and took the rear dash off and custom made speaker brackets for them. then i put the dash back on and it doesnt look like i have aftermarket speakers, and u cant tell from looking in the trunk because they sit a little bit higher in the trunk. It sounds great and looks even better.

its not hard to pull the rear deck off(just noticed one post about it) took me like no time to do my custom rear deck check it out on cardomain my SN is wckddudeman

red vinyl and MDF looks awesome

not all speakers are easily mountable from below though... you can always move them into the rear side panels
