Need advice for new door speakers all around - Toyota Yaris Forums

Midnightsun · 05-03-2011, 08:45 PM

Can somebody help me out here. I am installing a sub and amp for the sub and would like to upgrade the door speakers in all 4 doors of my 2006 Yaris Hatchback (same as 2007-08) What fits relatively easy in the existing holes or do I need to add any special spacers. So what do I need. 6 1/2" all around? Any recommended brands relatively cheap? Do I need to worry about depth?

Did you check out this thread?

In my 2008 LB it's 6.5 up front and 5.25 rear unless you want to do some modifications. You will likely need to fabricate some spacers, but maybe there are some aftermarket ones available now. I made some for myself out of MDF using the templates from post #28 in the thread posted above. I think some have even used the stock speakers with the guts removed. If you do a search on speaker spacers I'm sure you'll get some ideas.

Thanks for the response. Since I need to manufacture adapters, there seems to be ample room to oversize. Can I go 6 3/4" up front like these? http://www.crutchfield.com/S-vxkPkAS...tml?tab=review
