I know now that a 6.5 component speaker will fit in our door I got a friend of mine to make the adapaters in the door also ran the cross over in the door panel...

This guy will make them for me for 30$ CDN and depending where you live I will be able to ship them out for a minimal charge cause I work for a shipping company...

I also took lots of pics of the install so could send the pics with the panels.....

Let me know if you are intrested???
Spark :thumbsup:

what drivers are they? 6.5's do fit..... but there are some that won't because of the depth. That is the only trouble with mass prodoucing 6.5 adapters... some drivers need more spacing than others.

ya im interested, put some pics up?

The speakers are the Infinity 6.5 components and to make the fit we added spacers to the panel so the magnet would fit in

Show some PICS

That's exactly what I am looking for. I've got a set of Infinity 6.5", I was planning on making some kick panel but I just don't have the time. Please post up some pics, I am very interested in getting a set. Thanks

Very interesting...

I just put in a new set of 4x6's last summer because I didn't think a good compnent 6.5 would be possible!

I hate to follow suit, but let's see some pics! :)

The size of the file for 1 of the pics is to big well it is over the 200k limit for this site if you want I could email the pics to you the pics are 250kb and up so if you have a hotmail that means i can only send you 2 pics at a time and then you will have to save them so i can send you the rest there are a total of 6 pics in all one of the panel beside the old houseing,2 pics of where to put the cross over,a pic of ust the panel installed, one of the panel with the speaker installed and one of the finshed product speaker and panel installed in door.... :thumbsup:

Hey man... I could resize them for you and then post. That would be no problem... If you want to do that, e-mail them to me at boarder211@canada.com

Alright everyone! Here's the resized pics!

Cross-overs

Again...

Does anyone know how to upload multiple pics per post? It would really make life easy...

But hey! It's upping my post count (There's gotta be a silver lining for everything)

And finally...

so the door panel fits over it nicely? And why mount the crossover on the back of the door panel, why not put it in behind the speaker? and is it 3/4 or 1/2 MDF?

Yes the door panel fit over nicely because of the pocket in the door panel there was alot of room to spare for this install. the reason the crossover is in the door panel is because behind the speaker mount in the door the window glass is right there so limited space for the crossover.and lastly it is 3/4 mdf. Also what we had to do was make spacers so the panel is not directly on the door what we did was well now this is going to soung getto but took about 6 or 7 washers and glued them together and that gave us the space we needed for the speaker. The tweets that came with the components fit nicely into the old housing all it need was a little hot glue.

Now that should be all the info you will need to transform your factory 4x6 into a 6.5 and to the people that said it could not be done... :P

do you have any plans i can look at...i just got some 6.5 kicker freeair subs and i am planin on puttin them up front to give me a lil advantage over the comp at the spl sound off if you know what i mean, I have an infinity tweeter that i can put a bigger amp on for the highs and i wan more bass up front, what do you all think?

sounds like a great idea! I think im gonna do something similar.

depending on the depth of the speaker it shouldo work cause on our cars the speaker is not flush with the door panel so there ia a little extra room but i suggest is do it and when checking it before putting the panel back on see how muck bass reflex there is on the speaker you don't want the speaker pushing out and onto the door panel...
