I had fairly large 7" mids in my front doors for a few years that fit fine with a small mounting bracket. Great overall speaker that played very well down to about 60hz.

Well , I ended up walking out of Best Buy the other day with a couple pairs of 6x8 Pioneer ts-a6880r's . Seems like it should be a cool factory replacement speaker (I'm not a mega-thumper - or made of money  ) , so I guess I'll see how it goes . I'm thinking they've gotta be better than the factory speakers !

Well funny thing is i have the same speaker all the way around and my fronts sound better too. I think it has more to do with placement rather than size.

What if i think the stock speakers have decent bass response? Im thinking about getting 6x8s and amping them, no sub.

I installed my new speakers this past weekend . Not too much of a PITA to do the job , just had to be gentile not to wreck my panels & stuff . I felt better doing the swap myself , rather than letting some half-wit wreck my car & not tell me he did it . If a clip or something got wrecked , I'd rather do it myself . Heck , I even found some evidence of a "heavy-handed" dealership tech. while I was in there  .
At any rate ... not that I thought the stock speakers sounded that bad , but these definately sound better . I haven't really wailed on 'em yet , but I have more confidence that when I do , they'll not blow up ! Now on to bigger & better stuff !!
