I'm looking at doing some audio in the RS come spring...I'm examining my possibilities and have run into a stumbling block....According to Crutchfield, some 4x6's fit the dash, some don't...I cant tell a difference between them, though.

Specifically, these: http://www.crutchfield.com/p_065S75/...tics-S75.html?

Is there any reason those wont fit in the dash? If there is a clearance issue, is it as simple as heating up the heater duct pipe, or drilling a new hole in the speaker mount plate? Or would it be much more involved? I'd rather like to keep BA gear all through the car.

the reason some will fit and some wont is because of mounting depth and magnet size just by looking at those i can say they should fit

 

Thats what I figured, too...I used Crutchfield to compare those to the 4" plates that they say fit (JLAudio's)...the mounting depth is 1/16" difference...and the magnet on the Bostons is a hair larger in diameter. So, I figured they'd fit....I just wanted to be sure there wasn't something obvious I was overlooking.

Thanks!!

 

if you get a 4x6 plate, you will getter a lower profile for definite fitment, and you will have a much better tweeter end. the mids will suffer just a bit, but it should be very clear. especially with good power.

 

They should fit but you will get better sound quality from plate speakers
