Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Audio How much depth in front door?

I would loe to fit my OZ 6.5" Mid bass speakers in the front doors, but they need about 3.5-4" depth. I dont suppose they will fit? If they dont fit I think I will go with the Infinity 572. Any other recomendations?

With a small wooden spacer(1/4")you'll have about 3 inches of depth to work with. You can try using thicker wood and you just might be able to fit those OZ in there. HTH. Also, please let everyone know if you can make that work. That's very useful information! Good Luck.

I think I rememeber someone saying that 3/4 space is possible. this could be enough for you to fit your speakers.

Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking. Someone used 3/4" and front spacing is no problem. There is pretty good gap between the speaker and the grill. I think 3/4 wood could work just fine.

2.75" is what we've got. So, add an inch spacer and try it out. Hopefully, the door panel doesn't hit.
