OT: Speaker Size?

MysteryMachine · Dec 22, 2004

does anyone know what size speakers we have in our cars. I have the normal system not the mach 460. I have to solder the one speaker wire again (rear drivers side) I was thinking being you gotta rip the car apart to get in there i would look into the price of new aftermarket speakers. Why was Ford so dumb when they designed the back end of ours cars no reason you should have to take the whole back panels off to get the the speakers.

I figure on just replacing all the speakers so i need the size of front and back

Thanks

Thanks for your help everybody. I'll probably run out to WalMart and get some pioneers. Then I'll really be able to blast my country music

LOL Forgot to update everyone on how the speakers are. I got them changed but 1 on Thursday, when i too my pass door apart the hooks that hold the door on were all broke and they used shady black stuff to try to glue them back together. Well friday I hooked up the last one and WOW it sounds great. You can turn it up get out walk away with the doors closed, windows up and its clear like you were siting in the car. Have noticed a few peopele turning their heads as i drive by but that could just be from the car.

Thanks for your help guys

Anybody else noticed that the past 2 threads I started someone askes the same question like a day or two later?

in my 95 V6 i had pioneer 6x8's all around in my stang, with 1" titanium dome tweeters where the mach tweeters are, a pioneer head unit, and 2 pioneer 10" subwoofers in a custom trunk inclosure, with a 100x2 amp. It sounded so bad, we had everything tuned perfect, and it sounded sweet, VERY clean, i got so many compliments.

Ford didn't do too bad. I have a Lexus ES300. To replace the rear 6x9's...
1) Remove lower portion of back seat
2) Remove upper portion of back seat
3) Remove third brakelight assembly
4) Remove complete rear dash assembly
5) Remove factory sealant from around the speaker mount
6) Remove speaker mount w/ speaker
7) Transfer mount to new speaker
8) Re-install

The sad part about it is that you pop the trunk, and you can look right at them, but they are dropped in the hole from the top, instead of simply bolting them on there from the bottom.
