[ricerc]

yeah i have 6.5 kenwoods in my rear deck and they are just fine u would have to modify the rear deck if u want the 6x9s to fit in the same spot its ur whip man so if u like the 6x9 go for it

[InFamouz Cb7]

if u have good 6.5's up front or components, then put a low pass filter on ur 6x9's in the back it'll sound good, add an amp of course

no, if ur going to wire up aftermarket speakers with the oem wiring u need to cut off the plug and connect female connectors to the wires the slip them over the tabs on the back of the aftermarket speaker.

The OEM plug comes apart, and already has spade lugs on it. If they are the right size, you can just use those.

I tried to look for the pods on ebay but no luck. Anyone knows where else I can find them other than the junk yards? The nearby junk yard in my areas are all American made.
Thanks.

alright yea i'll look into this thanks

I actually changed my 6x9's to 6.5 components. I like it better. But of course I went from Stock Bosch to Infinity components. So I couldnt tell you the real difference

I had to make my pods and brackets for the 6.5 to sit nicely. Wood comes in real handy It should be an easy DIY with a plug and play setup.

Remember to unplug your battery when doing electrical work. Also, have a few extra fuses, as they might blow.

Not really they are a snug fit so you have line it up. The screw gets to close to the trunk arm.

Yes it will short out. But it shouldnt do any damage, as long as you fix it right away.

My alarm was shorting out, becasue I had the door panel pulled off, was doing sometihng and lost a bolt. Tried putting a longer one in, that kept blowing fuses to my alarm. I changed the bolt to a smaller one, that fixed it and no more blown fuses
