i cant find a place to put some 6x9s in my 88 ford taurus. i found a good spot above the seats in the back. but i cant find a place to put them in the front. i cant really find a way to fit them in the door. sugestions?
Take them back and buy some speakers that fit the factory locations. Unless you are willing to fabricate something out of fiberglass then you don't have many options.
from what i know about fords is they fit a 5x7 speaker most of the time. if the depth is the problem and you don't want the speaker exposed then your screwed. you can always cut a piece of plywood to put between the speaker and the car for more depth. You may have to metal drill new holes and possibly cut out a little of the hole for it to fit.. This is if they are going in the doors.
ill try to get some pics of the interior. i cant find a spot in the doors for them. they arnt deep enough. there are speakers in the top of the dashboard but im not sure what sized speakers are in it.
Yeah unless you're prepared to do some serious custom fab work on either the door cards or the dash, it would just be easier to get some decent factory replacements.
if they are in the dash they are deff not going to fit a 6x9. Ill look around online for the original size crutch field .com is a great site. I cant remember the other ones
Seriously? one reply up top said Fords commonly use 5x7 (that's what they are in my truck) and then there is a link to Crutchfield where you enter your vehicle details and they list all the speakers that will fit and their sizes.
Not trying to be mean, but it's coming across like you are doing 0 research on your own.
Like they said above its probably 5x7 in my truck there 4x6s, but I have a yukon so its different. I know that I can only put 4x6s because theres no room for anything else its like a perfect fit. Theres no way you would EVER fit 6x9s in the front unless like some said up top is if you do custom work like kick panels on the doors or up on the dash.
