I’m looking to upgrade the speakers in my impala.  My initial thought was a set of components but I’m eyeballing a pioneer mvh2400 which is an active hu.  I started looking at different speakers but I’m trying to keep the stock look in both tweets and mids spots so I’m having issues finding ones to fit the areas.  Here is the crutch field write up https://www.crutchfield.com/S-y039dk6PwJK/learn/2006-12-chevrolet-impala.html

 Depth is the main issue I’m running into.  

I was looking at ct2 tweets but wasn’t sure if the casing could be removed and the measurements of them caseless.  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

1st thing that will help is does it have a bose system or not? 2nd what kind of music do you listen to as well? 3rd what kind of budget are you looking at overall?

You can buy speaker spacers that will bring the speaker out some more to give you some more depth. Per that write up you have 2.9" of depth that is more then enough for some component sets. Also there is other places besides Crutchfield for car audio that will give you some other options like sonicelectronix.com, onlinecarstereo.com,parts-express.com, and I am sure the guys here will give you some options as well. Do some research, find what looks decent to you and go from there. If you are going to do a head unit and speakers then I hope you are also going to do a 4 channel amplifier as the head unit will not power those speakers very much. They will sound dull and not all that great without a amplifier.

Crutchfield calls them "lift rings" but you can get them on amazon or eBay for much cheaper. Also they have specific made 6.5" speaker bracket mounts made that will help with your vehicle.

There is lots of stuff like this out there, just have to do some looking is all.

Sorry about that, I left out vital info.  It’s non-bose car and I plan on getting a 4ch.  I listen to a bit of everything really, less country and rap though.  Looking to stay around $200.  This is a daily vehicle used d for commuting.  I’m replacing the hu to modernize the car so I figured I should do speakers while I’m at it.   

I had planned on making spacers to fit some of the more popular drivers but I figured crutchfield numbers showed the maximum spaced depth before hitting the door panel. I guess I’m going to need to measure that one myself.

Any recommended that fit the 0.8 in of space for the tweets?
