Gunner 0 Report post Posted November 11, 2009 Just wondering if it is possible for me to somehow fit a 5.25 speaker into those. Im guessing they are currenty 4" ones in there? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

moktar 7 Report post Posted November 12, 2009 You can get decent JVC speaker's and they fit the into the "nokia pods" if thats what your talking about. I have them amped running a pretty low wattage and they sound all good. I would recommend doing the front speakers in the kick panels first as they make a huge diffrence.

Mark 178 Report post Posted November 12, 2009 You can get 5.25" versions of the pods that bolt straight up. Contact Ray or Brent (I got a set from Brent). I believe they came on facelift cars with the better speaker package / stereo system. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bmw325i 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2009 run a set of 4" rockfords in the back and some nice 5.25's in the front. Very very nice sounds. Speakers idealy need a housing so drilling into the metal and leaving them un-housed will sound worse than the original ones. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
*Glenn* 854 Report post Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) decided that im gna drill into the metal and mount them from the bootside. DO NOT MODIFY any metal in that area, it's a no go area for WOF. Too close to shock tower and seat belt mounting points. Drilling a hole for a PK screw is OK, but do not cut any metal away. The rear parcel shelf (metal) is structural. I'd be doing what Jason (ISLE69) has suggested Edited November 12, 2009 by *Glenn* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antil33t 90 Report post Posted November 12, 2009 I just made wooden spacers. and the thickness of the parcel tray cover is enough to hold them down. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kaz 50 Report post Posted November 12, 2009 (edited) Either get some spacers or get the right sized speakers similar to what Jase did. Definately don't cut or modify the metal in any way. Edited November 12, 2009 by Kaz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
