I was thinking about that too but I might just try to make some kind of a custom bracket myself considering the ones i wasted my money on don't fit! In the end I might just end up having a car audio place install them for me if I get any further discouraged.

fricking crutchfield, I'm never trusting them again. they said that 6 3/4" speakers would fit in the back, too, but I just got my other speakers and they don't fit either. Too large, looks like it needs 6 1/2" speakers. soldier4life: did you have to use brackets for the rear speakers too? I just know I'm going to end up paying someone too much money to install these things for me.

sorry took long to reply but the 6 1/2 is what u need for the rear and i believe you do need brackets for the back cuz for mines if i were to screw them on...the screw would be floatin in air....i have got brackets yet and i should soon but for now i used that blacl sticky stuff from the front stock speaker that was holding the speaker to the door holder....buy yea i believe that the brackects that i bought for the font would work for the rear...u just got to cut the 3 screw tabs off

No crap!! I feel your pain same thing happened to me, I also bought those stupid brackets and they don't even fit. I'll end up paying Tweeter or somebody to install it for me... grumble grumble. Back in mother Russia evil capitalist crutchfield would have to pay for this outrage!!! NARR!!

if you bought the same brackets as me...it should work fine...u just have to screw small holes into the door speaker holder so that u can srew hte brackets onto the door speaker holder.... just line up any of the tabs screw hole or outer screw hole with the door speaker holder and drill a small hole

let me see if i can post some pic up and let u guys see how i installed mines...give me a couple of days cause i have two jobs and wor 12 hours a day....so work with me

Hell yeah, I just finished installing the speakers. In the back, I had to cut a bunch of plastic from around the bracket to make the speakers fit, but they eventually did.

In the front I used the brackets from crutchfield plus I cannabalized some plastic parts from another pair of brackets I found and bascially just used them to bridge the gap between screw holes. Took me a couple of hours to figure it out but at least I don't have crappy paper cones in there anymore.

I'll post some pics later, right now I need to eat something and take a nap.

update: pics here.
