mounting bracket for door speakers

[matthumm65]

I have a 99 silverado single cab. I bought some infinity 9612i speakers and can't install them. It came with 2 different brackets and very little instructions. I also came with these little square brackets that i assume the screws are going to screw into. The problem is the speaker hole is rounded and these brackets will not go on. I have learned my leason to just pay next time, but i have already tore my doors off. any help would be appreciated.

The 9612i's are 6"x 9" speakers. Factory openings in the doors of the Silverado are 6 3/4" round. In order to install them you will need to either cut the metal on the door to fit or fabricate a bracket to allow it to be installed, which may or may not interfere with reinstalling the door panel.

I would save myself the trouble and return the 6"x 9" Infinity's to the shop or sell them and pick up a good set of 6 3/4" speakers. The factory speakers in my 01 Silverado were held in with a clip so I did have to drill holes for the mounting screws. Aside from that, they dropped right in.
