Outer Limits 4x4 Board

ok guys need to replace speakers in the doors of my gu ute... so what size speakers are they? 4'' 5 1/2'' need this asap as its a little quiet driving at the moment

the depth maybe the issue.... if like the GQ ones, they are very very shallow. very limiting on styles.

yeah i ve been told previous just was looking for size before pulling door trims apart.... only after replacing the same size just better quaility as the old ones are not working at all

6", pioneer tsg series are shallow and fit.

and they are cheap

is that behind the factory grill?.... just want it to still look stock. Got any pics? and how did you get the half of the door trim off?

and shit!!!

if your mirrors are manual: anything 6'' will be fine.

if youve got electric mirrors: as the boys said, you need really shallow speakers. 20mm if i remember correctly, from face to back of magnet. the stupid rail for the window runs right behind it!

good luck getting anything good in there with out completley making custom trims!

i bought 6.5's and used the speaker grate on the door trim as packing.
doesnt look tooo bad. doesnt look great at the same time. depends how neatly you fit the speaker cover up against the window winder shelf.

tanzi by electric mirrors do u mean side or power windows? it st so electric mirrors centrol locking etc.... keep the info comin fellars need to put some on buy the weekend.

so to answer my own question..... got a mate to give me hand to pull the door trims out with out f a rking them.... piss easy, and 6inch drop straight in. shit a decent set of speakers make the world of difference

What do power mirrors have to do with installing speakers that are in the bottom of the door.

no electric mirrors on the ute mate

I've got 6" Kicker splits in my doors. and have electric mirrors

Electric mirror doors have a different window glass and the front runner comes down behind the speaker.

Get some decent speakers not those tweeters you've got

JBL 6.5" 640gte fit in my GQ. Big diameter low profile magnets too so I made 20mm thick mdf spacers for better clearance through the factory hole. Didnt want to cut

Ive just recently fitted aftermarket speakers to my gu i used 6 1/2 inch kenwoods in the factory position without any modification part no.KFC-M1632A

What he said.
Fronts are 6.5" on a GQ and are very shallow on my car, which has electric windows and manual mirrors.
I used 20mm MDF spacers moved backwards ~5mm, and they /just/ fit under the stock combined armrest/speaker-grille if you trim some of the hardboard away carefully.
I went with JL Audio coaxials and sealed all the access panels and holes in the doors with Dynamat, and they're pretty good, run off an amp.
