Speaker Size

[Dylan]

I searched the forum, but didn't have any luck. Really simple question: What size speakers are in the Contour. (If it matters, I have a 1996 GL.)

Thanks much,
Dylan

I believe they are 6x8's all around. Easiest way to find out what you car accepts is to either call crutchfield or go to their website, put in your car info and it will tell you what fits in your car.

got to search the old forums also ...

Oh Crap! My apologies.. Still figuring this out. Thanks for the help.

Yah, your looking at 6x8's. 6x9's will fit, some maybe better than others. I have 6.5"s up front and 6x9's in the rear. The rear handle kinda hits, so it kinda angle's the speaker.

OK, if I got 4 stock 6"x8" speakers from a 2006 Mazda 3 off of ebay, would there be any connection issues otherwise? I've never replaced speakers before, are there just universal plug and play connections? Or would I have to look for adapters or something like that? Thanks again.

i wouldn't waste your time with stock speaker, you can get a decent set of pioneer speakers at Wal-mart, then go to best buy or circuit city and get the adaptors so its plug and play ...crutfied would have the adaptors also but they are pricey ...

[Dylan]

Well the thing is, I'm broke. And my current speaker situation is 2 blown and 2 cracked. If I can get 4 1-month old stock speakers off a 2006 Mazda for like 20 bucks on ebay, that would work for me financially. Keeping that in mind, would there be connection issues, going with Mazda speakers into a Ford?

Thanks,
Dylan

got a pic of the back of the speaker?

[Dylan]
