Why buy a kit for something like that?? When all you need is a dremail. Cut the holes and use a locking nut plate. Just splice the wires off of the rear speakers. Or install an amp and gop from there. And yes I have thought about it myself. Not sure if I will do it or not.

why do i want two more 6x9s? because, two more 6x9s plus my two subs and amps will make my car sound good as well as perform. and why dont i cut out the panels and just insert 6x9s, sorry, but i am the type that likes to keep everything original and just add aftermarket things, not cut my car up and turn it into frankenbird.

just a thought but if you want to improve the sound in your car put some seperates in your kicks or somwhere up font, putting 6x9's in the rear of your car probably won't make your high end sound better from the drivers seat. i personaly put a set of compresion driven horns under my dash and they scream.

seriously, more does not always mean better. and 6x9s in the rear are deffinately not gonna make the system better. no offense. get a good set of seperates up front, a decent set of 6x9s in the sails (but not necessary), a good sub, a good amp, and you'll be set
