6x9 = coupes
6.5 all around = sedans

IMO, the rear speakers dont do much, so i wouldnt spend too much on a set. just something better than the crappy factory ones as they distort too much. try not to spend over $100 on 6x9's... trust me, i thought it would make a world of difference or more than expected... it doesnt do much. just buy some $50 old pioneers or other lower models cause they wont do too much for you.

DO becareful on choosing a set of 6x9 speakers as most out on the market tend to hit the torsion bar casuing your trunk shocks to 'alter'. i have some jbl 936's and it fits. but my trunk feels just little stiffer, but no biggie at all.

slightly rubs the torsion bar, trunk needs more slack in order to close properly. nothing major affective.

anyone know if

alpine type r SPR-69LP 6x9's fit without removing the trunk springs? if they fit, is a spacer required?

how about infinity kappa 692.5i's? they require..3and 1/16th mounting depth...i doubt they'll fit but i'm just wondering since i already have a set of those on hand...

Infinity Kappa series - 692.7i

Fit perfectly with still an inch of room below the magnet!

Strange thing was that 2 screws lined up perfectly, and the other 2 holes were about .5 inch off... Guess I'll find out if 2 screws is enough to hold those down.

two questions:

- any of you have to drill new holes for the 6x9 screws, or there a lot of 2-screw & 3-screw installations? :\

- my Infinity Kappas 6x9s for the trunk came with these big hulking crossovers...where can I mount them?
