Speaker questions

I have an 01 corolla would it be able to maybe fit a 6x9 speaker at the back?
I have speakers lying around and want to use them

isnt the rear for 6-3/4"

If you get component speakers for the front, where is a good place to put the tweeters? (Yeah, I know you'll have to do some cutting).

ohh wth? i went to a future shop a big elctorinic seller in canada and they said they could only fit the 6 inch speakers and replace my 6 and half with a stupid gay speakers.. did i just gfet ripped off.. they said it didnt fit or something like that. yes but dont you just need to cut the right amount of size of hole and there you have it you have new speakers right? or am i wrong is it not that easy

You can fit whatever sized speakers you want in the back. You just need to cut a little. My friend's been doing that to cars for years.

ohh really so a 6x speakers wont be too much of a hate on my wallet if i wanted it done?

Not really. I could do it too.

crutchfield says 6 3/4" rear. obviously you can fit a 6 1/2" cus its smaller

its 6 1/2...and doors is best place for tweeters right next to the door handle. I did it on mine, i think i posted a finished pic of what it looked like. Front speakers are a little harder to install because of the damn rivets on the doors. its not just screwed in like all the other more expensive cars haha.

I'm going to get mine installed today. The Crutchfield store in Charlottesville VA is only about an hour from my place, so I'm going to have them do it. They did a fantastic job on my Tundra, so I trust them.

Their sales dude assured me that the installers can make the component tweeters work, so I'm crossing my fingers.

They had a deal last month that if you bought two MTX 10" subs, they'd give you a sub box for free. I'm REALLY looking forward to getting that puppy installed.

You can fit 6x9 speakers in the rears... if you know what you're doing... and can do some cutting and build wood speaker rings. Also, some 6 1/2 WILL NOT FIT! The baskets may be too big- example: new Infinity reference line, their akwardly designed baskets (metal frame) will not go through the opening. (mine were already enlarged-dremeled for another pair of MB quarts and these still didn't fit) so be careful of what you purchase make sure it'll fit/look at the speaker itself first.

For the front speakers, most 6 1/2 will fit but if it's too tall (mounting depth is not enough) just build a .5" wood speaker ring to mount it. Worked for my MB Quart Premiums, You will also have enough room on the inside of the door panels for crossovers, and put the tweeters (best place IMO before kick panels) in the side view mirror part (assuming you have electric ones)

By the way, I did car audio sales for years... and I did trick my corolla up... 1 12" bandpass box, that shook-1" thick MDF that was lined with fiberglass for structural reinforcement and a TC sounds subwoofer- fed 1k RMS watts to it. I'm selling the box and sub if anybody is interested but it's HEAVY.
