What Size Speakers!
Ok! What size speakers fit the front doors and what size speakers fit the rear (behind the seats)? I keep seeing people with different size speakers so what the max and what the actual fitments size! The reason I am asking is my uncle is can get some free sets of kenwood type of speakers, I just don't know what series! I know he has some
5 1/4 Kenwood Two Way, but no sure they will fit! Can't beat brand new speakers for $0.00.
Thanks in advance!

8" woofer in door!
3.5" mid/tweeter in door (it is a poor full range)!
rears are 5.25!
IMO, Kenwood speakers are poop, but they'll be better than the Bose diarrhea speakers!
no 10 million for me either, damn

Also, can I replace the 8 inch subs with aftermarket or will I just lose the 8 inch subs all together. I hope I can put in different subs or speakers in place of them!
Free....(no exclamition point)

Most guys will replace the door speakers with a 6.5" componet set and use a baffle. (you can make one or get one from Forum member Vrumvrum) Some guys will use a 3-way, a 6.5 mid bass...4" mid...and tweeter. Eatrice did a slick install with 3-way that used a 8" mid (MB Quart) Here is what I did using two sets of 6.5" componets.

Actually, the rears in a C5 coupe are 6.5", not 5.25". The verts and FRCs have the 5.25s

I chucked my rear speakers and they'll never get replaced since I do not think I'll ever attempt a 5.1 system in the Vette, hence, no rear speakers needed or wanted.
