Rep Power: 0 Mohawk, your attention please
I need your expert help here. I just received my infinity Kappa 5.25 components and I will be installing them next weekend. What i was wondering is do you know if i will need to buy spacers for the mids (they didnt come with any)? I am wondering because i'd like to have everything i need BEFORE i rip the door off [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG] Also, what mods, if any, will I need to do to get the new Tweet to fit in the factory (01 coupe) location?
Thanks. Anyone else who has installed these specific speakers please chime in too! Thanks a lot peeps

Rep Power: 371 I will be buying the Kappa Speakers. From what I have read from some of the threads here, You have to use a spacers so the window can go down all the way. I think it would look kind of dumb if in the summer time you couldnt roll your windows all the way down, because of the speakers. I had some links to some of the threads, but now I cant find them. I know n00b's hate hearing this but search for Infinity, and that should bring up threads. Good luck.

Rep Power: 0 Thanks bro, though I'm not quite a noob... I did search and all I could come up with were threads about the 6.5 kappas...I'm installing the 5.25. There MUST be a depth difference, wouldn't you think? I just dont want to get my whole door torn apart and then find out I have to run to homedepot or Fry's... So if someone has installed the 5.25 kappa components, please chime in!

Rep Power: 0 Our front doors are actually designed for oversized 6.5" Speakers..(bigger mounting rings) For the 5.25's you will Definately need to fabricate a spacer, preferably out of MDF.. Plywood will do as well. the spacer will have to be bout 5/8 of an inch thick..(maybe more or less pending the speaker).. the 1" Tweeter can fit in the stock tweeter location if you make the stock 3/4" Hole a little bigger by filing it down..
