front speakers for LX coupe

I've read in other posts that EX has 6 1/2" speakers in the front, but I don't know what size speakers LX has?? Are they 5 1/4" or 6 1/2" ?? I've also read that for EX, you need to replace the factory mounting brackets...is that also the case for the LX? Also I know you need spacers to fit most aftermarket speakers...How deep of a speaker can LX fit with spacers?? I've read somewhere that it's 2" without the spacers, but how much more room does it have before the speakers hit the speaker grills on the doors? Thanks for the info.

well the DX, LX, HX, and EX all have the same doors and same sound system, there is no differences at all with the exception that LX and EX coupes have a tweeter pod.

strange..

If you have cruise, Power doors and windows..you have an LX.. maybe in the states it's different cause Canadian models are a wee bit different as far as features go and such...

yeah, I think that american car's are different (at least in CA). If I remember correctly, the only car that came with painted mirrors was the EX, LX might of had painted door handles, but not mirrors... and only the EX comes in eternal blue

Does your car have a tach? The DX doesn't, and the LX does.
