[QUOTE="FtheNutHuggers, post: 7371018, member: 632254"] firstgo: have you looked closely at the area where the front speakers mount? If so, is there room around the factory speaker hole? There is a speaker that I recommend for this type of application, and many others that is utterly ridiculous in the volume department. That is something that your vehicle will need to keep up with the ridiculous volume that is going to come from the rear 6x9s. Trying to get a 3.5" speaker of any sort to keep up with a set of half-crappy 6x9s is pretty much impossible. If you want to just lower the overall volume, by fading the output toward the front to reduce power going to the rears....that is a way. If you are not interested in lowering one to match another, rather make both even, you'll need to look outside the car audio bubble for sure. Take a second and go to: [URL="http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=290-020&FTR=290-020"]Galaxy Audio S5N-8 5" Neodymium Full Range Driver 8 Ohm[/URL]. That is a Galaxy 5.
