I can give you typical outside length/width and bolt spacing, but you may be able to make something larger and more substantial to fit the mounting area.

In addition, there may be torsion bars, etc underneath the speakers which could interfere with the magnets, especially if mounting depth is increased by 3/4".

You may want to consider inspecting the car before building.

im doing it to a colbalt and the trunks are wide open in those vehicles. also i borrowed a 6*9 from somebody but thanks for your heads up

Cool, what speakers will you be using?

I'm going to be useing old school...well old school to the age of myself speakers. Fronts are going to be diamond audio CM361 6.75 hybrid components. backs are going to the Fockford Fosgate FNQ 3406 6.5 components. furthermore does anyone have any input on either of these speaker sets?

Pictures always make things more interesting. So will they be full range, or with sub?

Is that a crack in one of the Fogate's baskets?

no cracks just dirty i just pulled them from my old car. mostly full range but i will use a single 12 occasionally. these speakers have excellent sound quality IMO but every one has there own.

Four 6-1/2's and a bit of power can do a great job of actually playing music!
