#12527, "Stock Speaker Size..."


          

I've looked around and I couldn't find any answers. So, I was wondering if anybody could tell me the size of the stock speakers on my RS. Just in case, I have one in each door panel. 1 on each side by the back seat. I'm about to upgrade and I need info. Thanx very much!

I believe the fronts are 5 1/4 and the rears are 6x9.

I'm pretty sure they are 5.25 all the way around... Maybe I tryed something biger than 6x9 but I think that was what I had and they don't bolt straight up

Correct, It's 5.25 all the way around for the RS.

IIRC,

RS + GS non infinity systems had 5.25 all around.

GS infinity systems still had 5.25 in the rear and front.

GST + GSX infinity or non infinity had 6x9's in the rear and 5.25 up front.

I'm not 100% positive on that but I think that was the breakdown.

I went to circuit city to see if they had any info. According to their books, the speakers on the doors are 6.5 and the rears are 6x9s. Now I'm not sure. Does anybody know if this is true?

The rear speakers are definitely not 6x9's even tho the grills make it look that way. I'm almost positive they are 5.25" in the rear and doors as was already stated. Circuit city = Dumb. Actually, according to crutchfield.com, it can fit 5.25, 6.5, or 6.75 in the doors. I dunno.. 5.25" all around sounds like the safest bet to me.



Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?

i know this for a fact about the front speakers. as for the rears, we thought it took 6x9's too, as that's what my shops info pointed toward. when we got the grills off it was 6.5's.

Actually I have a 96 GS and its definitely not 6x9's in the rear... so unless they were changed before I bought it I dunno.
