Default 96 C4 component front speakers, pics needed

Hey, I am trying to figure out how it would be possible to install a set of component speakers to the front of the 96 corvette but all the old threads have broken picture links.
Does anyone have a boomin C4 stereo with component front speakers that can share some pics?

what size are you thinking? In the stock spot, 5.25" will fit, 6.5 will be tough and possibly not at all. 90-96 are mostly the same.

I have some pictures here

This is my temporary set up. Just fabbed up a couple of adapters to fit the kicker 4" components. Not really anything special. I have 8" subs in the rear speaker location. All gets covered up by the factory speaker covers.

thanks Jeff, great link.

i tried to pull the cover of the speakers but i felt like I'm about to brake something so i stopped.

this Video helped:


i just bought the car (95 vert )and the previous owner already swapped the head unit with a nice Kenwood DD but the speakers are terrible, the sound is ok on low volume and above 60% it's embarrassing, i know that there's no chance to get something close to the 19 speakers system from bowers and wilkins that i have in my daily driver so i don't aim too high, shopping around at the moment, i'll update when i purchase/install.

Grilles are attached to the carpeted sills, they come off in one piece
