AK3327 10 Report post Posted November 17, 2011 Does anyone have a drawing with the door speaker location or a photo with measurements. Adding 4X6 to doors in a 69 coupe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pakrat 1,043 Report post Posted November 17, 2011 I don't have any measurements but here is a pic of a car with factory speaker holes. You can pretty much figure out the location by it's proximity to the other holes in the door for window adjustments. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bsunds 10 Report post Posted December 10, 2011 do you think its possible to fit a 6x9 or 6x8 speaker there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
miketyler 15 Report post Posted December 10, 2011 Depth is the kicker. The glass is very close to the backside of the speaker. A 6x9 with a big honkin' magnet will be problematic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danno 128 Report post Posted December 10, 2011 As mentioned, the depth of the speaker is an issue. Ones with big magnets will hit the window when it is down. So make sure the window is down when trying it. I mounted mine with a 1/4 inch spacer between the speaker and the door panel so it would not get in the way of the window. But you go out too far and the window crank handle can get in the way. I have power windows, so I don't care about that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cruzzar 22 Report post Posted December 11, 2011 If you are installing electric windows the area that was originally for the window crank can be used to mount a speaker. While the speaker will not be in the stock location by moving it a little higher in the door it will give you a little more room for the magnet. Here's a pic of my door.

Cruzzar 22 Report post Posted December 12, 2011 (edited) I made the upholstery panels for the doors myself. I used 1/8" pvc sheet material and thin, high density foam under both the black and titanium material. I tried to replicate the stock "standard" door panels but I wanted to carry the upholstery all the way down the door to the bottom so as not to see the painted steel area. The speakers are Infinity model 6032S1. Edited December 12, 2011 by Cruzzar Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
