f-150 speaker size

[Trey803]

I am gettin 5.25 rainbow slc's and use a universal adapter but was wondering if the 5x7 slc's would fit?

[project f-150]

yes

[Trey803]

Would I need an adapter? I thought the f-150 had a 6x8 speaker?

[project f-150]

same sh*t!! dif manufacturers list them differently. And somelike pioneer list it the same and will show speakers as a 5/7-6/8 cutout. most 6/8 speakers are a 5/7 but that ofset extra set of mounting terminals lunts them to a 6/8

[Trey803]

ahh thanx for the help. I actually have pioneer's now that were sold as 5x7 / 6x8 and was confused as hell.

[project f-150]

haha well get the rainbow's and enjoy them. but you cuold have actually fit 6.5's

[Trey803]

I still can! Havnt ordered anything yet. Would I have to cut anything?

[Trey803]

This puts the possibility of getting the germs now!?!

[project f-150]

what year is the truck?

[Trey803]

2002 svt lightning

[project f-150]

nope.. no cutting at all!! but the backs are a slight pita to do!!

[Trey803]

but the backs are a slight pita to do!!

??? confused about what the backs mean and what a pita is? Are you talking about mounting depth?

[project f-150]

backs= rear speakers..... pita= pain in the a$$
they arent imposible or extremely hard but compaired to the fronts they ****!!

[Trey803]

Yea I have replaced all of mine with pioneer's plus I'm only doing the fron stage with rainbows and alpine amp!!!

[Trey803]

The seat belt is a pita when it comes to the back speakers if i can remeber correctly
