stock speaker sizes in 90 model hilux single cab ?

[soo33y]

Hi,

I have recently purchased a ln106 single cab hilux.

Just wondering what the stock speaker sizes are ?

And any suggestions in upgrading the speakers ? Keep with the same size speakers as the stockers or cut up door trims and bolt on bigger speakers ?

Thanks,
Daniel.

I think they have a 4" in the trim of the dash, but I cut up the door trims and put in some mdf panel made up to take a 6" x 9" speakers. Can get pics tomorrow if you want.

They are def 4" crappy speakers in the dash. 7X10's work wonders in the doors

OK, so I guess I should be looking at putting something decent in the door trims huh...

Anyone got pics of what they have in their door trims ??

THanks,
Daniel.

Probably the easiest to do, which I did in my 4Runner. Is go to Autobarn and buy some ready made 6.5" split pods. They're moulded fiberglass in the style that points the driver and the tweeter up and inwards. Covered in grey vinyl very similar in colour to the Toyota colour, and they look bling!
All for about $120 a pair, you could hardly make some for that much, and unless you have the mould, it will never look as neat.

The pair I got from Northfield (pro car sound type shop) were only 25 for a pair to suit 6x9's, 18mm mdf with vinyl covering...

Phippsy,

Can you tell me where Northfield is ??

Thanks,
Daniel.

i have some pretty powerful 6 inchs in the doors with a small spacers so the window doesnt hit it

On my dual cab i have the speaker pods from a vs commodore mounted to the door trim. Allows a 6 inch speaker to be fitted and also gives you a map pocket as well. The hard part is finding a wrecker who doesnt want to sell the whole door trim to you. I can get pics if someone wants to have a look.

I`ve got kenwood 6 inch round 3ways in the front doors of my lux.I never had a problem clearing the window with these.

mine...
JL Audio all around. been under water several times and still crank mega hard (mind you i run it all through a big amp and have a subwoofer too )

Northfield are at Moorooka, Mt Gravatt and I think there's one at Redcliffe. There may be others others but...

[phippsy]

The other thing, if it's a standard lux it'll be easy to do but if you've got an sr5 then they had a full window and no quarter glass with the power windows. With the standard there is pretty much nothing under the quarter glass to interfere with fitting.

Yeah, but there's a big difference between the two door pods. Mine look very bling, all moulded and shaped. Plus they have to stick out further because the 4Runner has full windows. They're fully moulded fiberglass over MDF. As apposed to just MDF. Having said that, to fit big speakers in a Hilux yours looks much easier and cheaper.
