I'm trying to find a set of 6.5" components to fit in the front of my 2004 EX coupe, I did a few searches but couldn't find exactly what I was looking for. I checked on crutchfield but they only have 3 sets listed as fitting, there has to be more choices out there.

Has anyone figured out exactly how deep a speaker can fit in the door? or how much you can space a speaker out without worrying about the door panel fitting back on? This might make my search a bit easier. Thanks.

get Diamond Audio's for the components. The depth and the door panel shouldnt be a problem with most speakers. there is some room to play with

Anyone know if Alpine Type-S components (sps-171a) will fit in the doors?

Maybe you have not seen the door speaker location yet, but nothing over 2
" will fit without a spacer and a good number of speakers will require metal cutting to get in there.

The CL-61As are easily the best speaker for the money. Its like eating filet mignon on a soft-taco budget.

Don't be afraid to cut metal. I got a Dremel and it cut thru the door metal like magic. You can make any speaker fit with an afternoons work.

Don't be afraid to cut the plastic door panel either. Dremel goes thru it even easier, but then the plastic melts and makes a mess, so go slow.

I think the max mounting depth is 2 1/8th inch and the max spacer is 1 1/2 inch. something like that.

Not only will they fit, but they come with the exact adapter that you need for a 7thgencivic so they are a great choice if you are looking for something cheap yet effective

I just got Infinity Kappa's, but their kind of pricey and you'll need to do some metal cutting. By the way the speaker hole in the door is shaped, I think you have cut metal regardless of which components you get.

Well I guess except for the Alpines.

How do you like the kappas? My friend has the perfect components, and he was saying people like the kappa series more.

If I remember, the Kappas had more midbass.

alpine type s or infinity kappas, those are my fav, and yea you can make them fit, just takes a little labor to do it.

The Kappa's are extremely clear. If you like treble as much as bass, these are the ones to get. The mid base is decent but the high's are what this component excels at.

damn, I would really like to hear the kappas and perfects side by side.

Does anyone know if the alpine type r will fit? Ive heard mention of the type s but i already have a set of type r's. Also it is a leased car so i dont think i can get away with cutting metal.

I have JL Audio XR650-CSi mounted and they sound really good. I had them just wired up to the deck and they sounded ok. Then I hooked them up to a JL Audio 300/4 and they sound great now. All you need to make them fit is a spacer.

i put alpine type r's in. I bent the sheetmetal in the doors back to make the hole round and then used 3/4" mdf and cut out round spacers. i mounted the mdf to the doors, then alpine's plastic mounting ring to the mdf, then the speakers go right in. i also cut the plastic that sticks out around the speaker grill on the door panel to make sure the speaker doesn't hit the door panel. took about 2 hours total to install. best buy told me there was no way possible for them to work. but they sound alot better than the sony xplode 6 1/2's i had in there. i got the alpine cda 9825 hu and a tsunami 4 channel giving them 75 rms a piece.

so far from what i've seen all 2000 up civics will fit 6.5's in the door with spacers so just take your pick.
