Kilroy Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 Has anyone tried to mount a 6.5" speaker into an early '90s Subaru Legacy stock cutout? I have checked with Crutchfield and it states that a 6.5" (and 6.75" for that matter) will fit into the factory cutout front and rear of a 1990 Legacy Wagon. I have measured the factory speakers and they are 5.25" and I can't see how anything larger will fit in that space. I would surely like to mount a 6.5" speaker in them as they give better mid-low response, but I just can't see how it would fit. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reveeen Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 I have a '91 sedan that was in need of speakers, and my favourite junk store (Princess Auto) had 6 1/2 Sony speakers on sale. They fit in the back (rear deck) but the speakers themselves were too deep to go into the doors and have an operating window(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilroy Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 Thanks for the reply Reveen. I noticed that the stock front speakers have a steel ring that raises them about 1/2", that may be why they had clearance. I am looking for the lowest profile speaker I can for the front. Good to hear the 6.5" fit in the rear though, I'll start looking for some soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
