[QUOTE="Tombo, post: 99258, member: 545704"] I was wondering what size of component speakers would fit in the door panels of a 1999 Cavalier. It's a 4-door sedan, and the default speaker size is 4"x6". I found a nice set of plates that will convert the sizes, and even mount the mids at a bit of an upward angle, which is neat. I've seen it done before, I'm just nervous about cutting any metal or adding MDF... I'd rather use these pre-made, custom-fit conversion plates. They should fit fine. Oh, and another thing came to mind... I'm planning on purchasing a pair of 6"x9" 3-way Pioneer speakers, they're 220 watts. I saw a set from an opened box at the store today, I noticed they look a lot smaller, both from the top looking down and the size of the magnet, as well as lighter, than the current 6"x9" bazooka's I've currently got, w/ built-in crossovers. I really like the quality of sound I get with these Bazooka's, but they're only 2-ways. I was wondering if I should go about getting bazooka's again, or if the magnet size/weight really matter a whole lot. (I'll be throwing in a pair of 12" PPi's, 400 watts each, closed box, in the trunk. Everything will be run off, at first a Pioneer-7200, soon to hopefully be a 7400.) Any help/opinions? [/QUOTE]
