I just want to know what is the best/easiest installed speaker size to replace the rear stockers. The rear speakers are like 6 inches or so and I was wondering if it was easy to fit 6.5"s back there.. I know a lot of yall out there have done a lot of stuff like this so any info would be great as I am trying to get my sound system all installed this weekend I just need to know what size speakers for the rear. Thanks

haha, not for me. i think i have weird ones though. the mounts are right next to the surround, not on the outside of the metal part. i ended up using clamps for a screen door to hold the speaker in. that + im a retard = 7hr install time for 1 rear speaker. tomorrow im doing the other one. it should be done in around an hour now that i know what to mount the speaker with and how to get there in the first place.

just make sure you get speakers with the prongs as the mounting, not holes in the metal right by the surround. this would have saved me a lot of time trying to shave the mount so it would fit and figure out how to hold it on the mount without using screws.
drocay, you just dropped in 6.5's in front? i had to make adaptors and a lot of other people had to do that too.
