[Mr. Mikey]

I went to the Crutchfield website and used their cross reference to find speakers that will fit in my 97 reg cab.

I noticed it only listed 5 1/4" speakers for the doors, yet I see some of you guys have gone with 6 1/2".

Does it take much modification to go with the larger speakers?

I want to replace all my factory spkrs but I still want that factory interior look.

Don't know if this is of any help but my 2001 has 6 1/2's up front.

My 97 has 6.5's also

cruthfields info is sometimes wack, s-10's have 6 1/2" doors speakers

 

[2k1phatblazer]

Question here, what size are the dash speakers, and in 4 door Blazers, what size are the ones in the rear doors?

Thx.

 

[DropindaS-Mini]

the dash is the same as s-10's they are 4x6's and the rear doors are also 6 1/2"

 

[2k1phatblazer]

cool.....can't wait to get rid of that Bose garbage in my car and get some real speakers.....

yeah get a new headunit while your at it kenwood

 

[Mr. Mikey]

I replaced the factory speakers in the dash with Infinity 4x6 plates.

WOW! I'm hooked!

Now I want to replace the door speakers, but as I said in my original post, I'm concerned with the fit.

I intend to use Infinity Kappa 6 1/2's in the doors, and was wondering if anyone else has used these.

If so, how well do they fit? Is there enough room behind the speaker?

ETC........

 

[Mr. Mikey]

Also, what Kenwood would be the closest to a factory fit in a 97 S-10 LS?

use 6 1/2" speakers. you can use the infinity brand if you want. there is plenty of space for them

 

[Mr. Mikey]

Ok, I was doin some readin' and came across a review of some DDW6.5's.

I like them, but the mounting depth is 3 1/8".

What is the max mounting depth in the doors of a 97 S-10?

I'd like to know before spending the bucks.

Thanx guys

 

[Mr. Mikey]

WTF?
