so we all know that stock speakers are far from... ok and i did some looking at crutchfield and i was just wondering if anybody has put alpine 6.5 type r compents in the front of our cars or the polk momo 6x9's in the back crutchfield says the dont fit but you know they play it safe so if anybody knows about those please help me out i know the 6x9 type r's will fit in the back and the polk momo 6.5 compents will fit in the front but im werid and would like to keep all my speakers the same i heard somewhere that speakers are almost like voice matched just to sound better but anyways if you know about those speakers that would be much thanks

Alpine type-r components are pretty good. I've had them before. 6.5s will fit only with an adapter though.(requires drilling) Thats the most recent mod I did. Dont know bout the Polks. Why not go Alpine all the way?

What size will fit in the front without drilling?

ya im a big alpine fan i just love there stuff well i wanted to keep everything the same so it the 6.5 type rs didnt fit then i was gonna go all polk momo but knowning now that they will fit im just gonna go all alpine then the new type r 12 sub. in a ported box

What size will fit in the front without drilling?
I beleive 5.25 will fit. I'd still go with a 6.5. though. You'll be happy with a 6.5 :thmsup:

Crutchfield said these wouldnt fit my Gen 7 Sedan, I had to use a Saber Saw to make the holes a little larger, only had to trim a small amount, didnt need an adaptor either, the magnets are pretty close to the glass when its rolled down but it doesnt touch, just measure from the glass to the door panel, and measure the magnet to the back of the speaker. Im pretty much satisfied with the rear oem speakers, btw, no need for a componant speaker up front, you already have a componant speaker, when you replace the door speaker you still have the tweeter in the dash, but its your car and your $$, its really an easy installation. weeeee

Dumb question #324-

Am I correct in assuming that the front door panels must be removed to access the speakers?

Yes they have to be removed but it's really easy. Check out this post... http://www.driveaccord.net/forums/showthread.php?t=2722 I wrote up detailed instructions for changing out both the fronts and the rears.

BTW... Hey Mv774.... Ever heard of punctuation? It makes posts a whole lot easier to read. You'll also find that more people respond when they don't have to take a lot of time to decipher posts without it.

Thanks Jeff,

I should have followed my own advice to someone else in that thread " The search feature is your friend". The dumb ass award is now hanging on my wall.

so im set on getting the 6x9 type rs for the back, and doing the install myself; then im going to have best buy put my 6.5 type r comp. in mostly because i dont feel like fooling with any of that install stuff. thanks alot guys for the help
