6.5 if they are round, and 6X9 if they are oval.

u can fit both that have been said. but which one is up to the model of u car u have or the pods u have in the car (ex are 6x9) everything else is 6.5. and just to goahead and clear it up the fronts are 6.5 no matter how u do it. u get a ring make a ring or what ever and its boom boom bang bang from there.

Are you replacing the speakers with the same size as stock?

[1993 CB7 LX]

if the stock ones are 6.5's, then yes

if you get the rear decklid cardboard thingy from a DX (which didnt have rear speakers in some years) you can cut holes in it to match your speakers precicely, that way you can use the grilles supplied with your speakers if they came with them instead of the big pods that the stock ones were in.

how do they not fit? are they the wrong shape? Wrong Size? what???

LX = 5 1/4" Front and Back
EX-R = 4" or something upfront because of that plastic box thing
6x9" Rear.

Anyways... my question... in order to get 6 1/2" speakers in the rear which pods would i need... 5 1/4" from an LX (would require trimming) or will they fit in a 6x9 hole... or do i need to use adaptor plates?

i did it. i just drilled holes in the metal, and dropped the speakers in. looks like shit, but can always pick up some fabric and glue it on.

There should be pods that the speaker is bolted into, and it comes with a cover... You should not see speaker at all...

i know, but the speakers would not fit in the pods. the bottom of them were too big. they are 6.5's tho.

Did the pods look like this?

they look exactly like those. the metal part of the speakers jut out too much, so they dont fit in.

Yeah the front on an EX they are 4.25, small as hell. I just replaced my front ones with 6.5 and that is a major difference. Then the rears are 6x9's, note if you get pioneers you have to clearance the pod a little bit.
