Re: what are the stock speaker sizes?

Don't forget boyz, they're 4x6e. "e" for "Euro", that is. You CANNOT fit
most 4x6 speakers without cutting either the speaker or the door. This
includes plate speakers. 16v Jason seems to have a real sweet setup with
some Cerwin 4x6 plate speakers. He cut the plate down so that it would fit
in the door.

BTW, you know the euro-spec speakers because they have four "ears" for
mounting bolts, where the non-euro has a rectangular frame that is metal
all the way around.

Finally, you have to watch the mounting depth in the doors. Many
aftermarket speakers will hit the door frame metal. You have to either get
shallower speakers or cut the door frame.

Yup. It's a bitch. That's why Jody and I did 5 1/4" components!!
