help with replacement system

[timmyk82]

i got a buddy wanting to replace the whole audio system in his 97 mitsubishi eclipse.

his wife is wanting to get it all for him for their anniversary. anyways not one site or mag i've looked at each have different size speakers that go in different spots.

here is what is actually in the car.

-3 1/2" tweets on dash

-5 1/4" in the front doors

-i think 6x9" on ea. side of the backseat.

my question.

does anyone know what will really fit in the door and should the dash tweets remain, and are the rear speakers 6x9's the look a litte like 4x6's possibly.

Go to crutchfield.com and you can pick out your car and they will give you a list of the speakers that will fit from there. Do not buy from there though, becauset hey are expensive. Where are you located at in ILL?

i am about 30mi north of champaign

i am on crutchfield and they give me all kinds of options.

i went and looked in the car, the door speakers are weird looking. i would say 5 1/4" but they didn't lookin like speakers. more like circle foam pads. the funny thing is that there is about an extra 1 1/2" all around this "speaker".

p.s. i never buy from crutchfield, just look to see what i may like

I am right next to Galesburg, which is pry about 2 hours from where you live.

To get the exact speaker hole size, take out the speaker and measure. You could call crutchfield and talk to someone and they will be abel to give you more info then the website.

If you need a 2 channel amp i have one im tryin to sell. Let me know if your interested.
