Subject: Installing speakers?
IP: Logged

Message:
Just want to know if 6 3/4 speaker size is much different from 6.5. If I wanted to install 6.5 in my dakota cc would there be a alot of configuration required? I read a lot of guys putting in 6.5 but the opening's in daks are
6 3/4 according to Crutchfield. Is it worth the extra money for the 6 3/4 cause they are hard to find on ebay! Thanks for any input!

Just get some 1/2" or 3/4" MDF and make a spacer the size of your old speaker. Mount that to your door/side panel. Then mount your new speaker to that. It allows you to have a different size speaker the stock, easier way to mount, less vibration, and doesn't cause any clearance problems.

Pistolero,

MDF Stands for Medium Density Fiberboard. Just go to your local Home Depot or lumber yard and ask for 1/2 inch MDF they will know what you are talking about

Thanks! I was thinking that it must be something like that old stuff we used to call "masonite".
