Stereo & Electronics - Has any one tried...

... puting biger speakers in the rear of a Camaro?
They look as if they mite fit a 6*9 or somthing around that size. I ask because I can not have a sub due to lack of space and would like somthing more than just 4in int the back. (I know a sub will fit but need the room for somthing else.)

Thanks
Adam

Do you mean the rear seat side panels or the hatch area panels? I had a camaro that I put 6x9's in the rear seat speakers instead of the 6.5's, had to cut the support frame with a sawzall. You can put bigger speakers pretty much anywhere, you just have to work at it. I don't see why 6x9's wouldn't fit in the back, you just might not be able to use the factory grilles.

I am a hockey player and have to fit a giant bag back there 3-4 times a week and could not relocate the cd changer (witch i like alot) for the sub. Thanks for trying tho. I am still not all that sure of what i am going to do so any thing else would be apreciated(sp).

depending on ur wiring skills relocating the changer really isn't that hard, I've seen alot of changers placed on top of the rear deck just against the back seat. But back to the 8" quarts. The only cutting is done behind the plastic panel so don't think it will change the appearance at all on the interior. I can not tell you how loud & clean they are. You would be very happy with the investment. I paid $75 for each one of my eights, and the cutting was done by a skilled installer for a mcdonalds combo meal. either way good luck

6*9 will fit! But if you are looking for good sound with out blowing the wallet. Try buyin concept 6*9 the will cost you about 80 bucks th4en put some memphis speakers in the dash it will sound nice and you will have nice bass. But if you have the money to spend i would definatly go with the mb quarts!
