Does anybody know if the 572.5cf Infinity Kappa speakers fit into an SVT. I looked at crutchfield to see what will fit in my car and they only showed some pioneers and a set of good kenwoods. Both 6x8s. If anyone has experience with the Kappas could you enlighten me.

I have Infinity Reference 5x7's in my 99 se, and they came with a bracket so they screw right in, but I can only use three screws instead of all 4.

Yeah, ebay has them for $75-$85 plus shipping. Great deal. Then I'm gonna put a Kicker 8" L7 in my rear deck. Trying to find a good plexiglass box for it though.

I put the kappa 6x8's in the back of my girlfriends 626 and they totally changed the sounds for the better. Good midbass, mids and I have to say for being unamped they have some scorching highs. I think they would sound killer with about 50w rms to each.

That should look amazing, But why not go with the 10????? you should be able to fit a L7 10 in the rear deck

I successfully installed a pair of Kappa 6x9 3 ways in the front doors. The only thing I needed to do was drill a couple of holes to mount them and installed some anti vibration material.
I am not the first one to do this. The only reason I tried it at all is that I had read several other posts on the original contour forum from people who had done the same thing.
