Default 4g speakers. someone please answer this

lets try this again... crutchfield says polk db6500 components won't fit in the door, but infinity 6010cs will the difference in depth is 1/8" polk = 2" infinity = 1 7/8" will the polks fit? what speakers do you all have and what are the depths? fourth gen.

I've got infinity 6002is all the way around. No fitment issues. Not sure of the depth on them though.

i just put 2 sets of DB650 coaxials in the doors and rear deck of my 4th gen and had no problems at all. You do need to use the factory pods in the rear though.

You can fit over 2" no problem. I put some Infinity Kappa 60.5cs components in my doors, they're a little over 2", no lifter rings. If you really want to get something 2.5" deep you can put up to a .5" lifter ring, I believe, without hitting the door grills.

Oh yeah, Crutchfield underestimates depth. Doesn't it say like 1 7/8" or something for the rear? BS. Also, whatever you put in the doors you'll have to cut away the back of the stock speaker baskets, and they're REALLY tough.

i think that is why crutchfield puts the required depth so low, that is without cutting the factory speaker-holders. i was too lazy to do that and too cheap to buy the infinity's so i've got kenwoods. they fit well and don't sound bad.

I mounted my Polk DB6500 in the door with no modification. Fits good and sounds great.

I just replaced stock-fitting Kenwoods with Infinity components to get better sound. But hey, whatever sounds good to you.
