Default Front Speaker Question

If I make my own mount for the front door (C5), can I fit the infinity Kappa 62.5i in there? Is there enough room to put them in the back as well? How do they sound?

Well price is an issue. I would definately like to stay under $150 for the pair and you can pick up the kappas for $85. Of course if they suck I don't want them but I have no way to really compare.

the Infinitys do not suck....but there are better speakers out there as Bogus mentioned. But they do cost alot more too IMO do not upgrade the rears, spend the extra money on better front speakers.

I recently bought a set of CDT 6.25 from www.thezeb.com for $150. They are marked down from $300 because the paint color is off !! Whoppie they are hidden anyway. Many people bragged about these so I finally got a set for my truck. All I can say is Holy **** batman

I plan on getting another set and redo my Vette in the spring !!
