Front (in door) is original 12cm / 4,7" (strange size), but 13cm (5,5") will fit in the original plate.

The rear is 5x7" or 13cm (5,5") . I saw some people who made 6x9" in the rear

Excellent thanks, so no silly adaptor plates or anything are needed to fit 13cm speakers front and back. Wicked

Thanks

If you have 5x7"at the rear, you need a adaptor plate to fit the 13cm speakers...

At the front 13cm will fit without adaptor plate, could be that you have to use the file to make it fit

I bought the adapter plate for the front (£14) and now have 17cm Kenny's up front, sounds the nuts... Not really bothered by with the bass for me cossie, so opted for some good component size speakers.

I adapted the rear shelve to house 6x9's.

So good all round sound and a little bass if i want it.

Cheers for all replies

Ipted for some Alpine SCR 13cm front speakers and some Alpine SCR 5x7" rear speakers, and a little bit of sound proofing, should sound very nice
