i have gotten a set of rockford fosgate stereo speakers. now here is the problem... where do i put them? i dont want to cut holes in my 69 gs. any suggestions???? Thanks, James
Not enough information. o No: What size are your "new" speakers? o No: I don't think 2 15" Subs will fit in your Dash, without cutting holes. :TU: :laugh: You can fit 4" speakers to replace the Stock dash speaker, easily. Even with A/C. :Smarty: :bglasses: Bigger than that, you may have to consider putting them in the Lower Kick Panels (I hate speakers there, because of poorer sound quality), but you may be limited to choices.
The speakers are 6 1/2" but are extra deep they measure somthing like 4 1/2" deep somebody had once mentioned maybe fabricating a center console to house the speakers
That would be cool! I could see that in your car, if you have Bucket seats. :bglasses: Yeah, those speakers are too big for "under" your dash (because of wiring harnesses/air ducts,etc). A custom console would be cool, and easy to do, yourself, if you can fabricate things like that. 6 1/2"? uzzled: Two way? uzzled: I would put those in the Back Seat area, somewhere. Or not (if you don't want to cut holes). That's why I always keep "extra" parts onhand (Kick panels, Door Panels, Rear Armrest Panels, etc.) to "modify" them, and to keep the Stock parts Stock. :Smarty:
If you have 3 1/2" speakers,Custom Autosound offers a nice speaker upgrade to replace the stock center of the dash mounted speaker. In it's place,are two 3 1/2" speakers that are mounted on a custom fabricated hardboard,and are fastened to the dash by a supplied bracket.I have them in my car and they sound great!(I ended up using Blaupunkt coaxial speakers to handle the extra power). Whatever you do,don't cut the kickpanels or door panels to install your speakers! This is a better way.
