well i finally decided to put 6.5 speakers in my doors.... and OMG im in love! they are infinity refrence 6020 ill let the pics do the talking tomorrow. ill show the before with the 5.25 (incase someone wants to go this route) and the now with the 6.5s .... oh and i have manual window btw

 

Kinda like to old engine motto: "There's no replacement for displacement". Gotta love upgrades.

 

 

 

 

looks good =] bet it sounds great too

 

I figured out a way to put 5.25's components in the dash of my Camaro. Sounds great and I didnt have to cut holes in my doors.

 

i was going to try that, but i was scared of rattles in the dash... that and when i had aftermarket 4x6 in my dash i felt it raised it too high....

 

I used a thin sheet of plywood and made brackets that fit in the factory brackets and kept the speakers out of the dash pad and barely cleared the ducting on the drivers side. Looks good, I mounted the tweeters facing me under the dash. You can barely see them.

 

any pictures? sounds like a good build

 

Are those mounting brackets ones that came with the speakers or did you buy them somewhere. I never realized it would be that easy to put speakers in the door with manual windows.

 

they came with the speakers, the infinity refrence i used come with both the metal one and plastic ones, but i felt the metal rings had a lower profile so i used those.

 

Sweet deal, I've been thinking about getting the Rockford Power series componets, or trying the shallow punch versions. I'm so glad I saw this thread lol. The dash speakers juts reflect too much off the windshield and gives and uneven imaging even when using time alignment.

 

no idea what that means, but glad to help lol
