im sure this has been done before i just thought some of you guys might appreciate the pics of this very inexpensive buy worthy upgrade

after about 20 min with a die grinder




bolted it up


lines up pretty good id say


ofcouse you will need the panels but....it might be cheaper to just buy them and make the brackets

 

Very cool man. I know plenty of people could use this. If you could make a template for people that'd be great too! Hell even dimensions would help out big time.

 

you know you can also use cable ties/zip ties

I did that with my first hatch. What are the brackets made out of?? Just to let anybody know i have the whole rear setup for the speakers for sale.

 

Sweet idea, A friend of mine could use this big time!

 

good info!!!

 

6x9's fit almost perfectly without any kind of bracket, to those who asked. You can literally just bolt/machine screw them into the stock locations and then ziptie the rears and they never bang or shift. I've done it a couple times now .

I guess I'll stop wondering about this and actually do it, since my 6x9's don't sound all that great just sitting on a shelf.

 

but doesn't the oem speaker setup also have a speaker seal? Is this needed?

 

thanks everyone!...i thought i would get flamed for it

the speaker size is 5 1/4......6x9 wouldnt filter through all of their sound because they would be blocked by the panel where its not cut for the speaker sound to come through....but im sure they would still sound better than 5 1/4

can you post pics? I can't picture this in my head.

 

Man can you make a templet or give the the mesuments. I have been trying for about a year now to get the brackets.. People who have them want way to much

 

6X9's are the ****...

cut holes, plop in speakers, wire them under the seats/carpet

EZ

 

willing to make extra sets and sell them?

I'd be interested in a pair...

 

ah in that case I already have a hatch lid that is cut but I removed it cause it banged a lot but I'll try the zip tie technique.

 

nice work!

 

i actually had them zip tied in while i was making the brackets and it worked but i didn't wanna run like that for long...it wasnt the sturdiest

 

where do you get the panels from exactly...?????
