New speakers help please

[BlackVX]

Thanks Billy, From what I read from other members, I should replaced all of them. They will eventually all break!

So if I mount the tweeters on top the OEM, then the kits that I mentioned above won't do. Do you have suggestions for a set/kit of speakers (tweeters, front, rear)? I have a small budget.

Thanks,
Michael

They usually com e with all you need to mount flush or surface.

I was able to surface mount my Boston acoustics tweeters with no problems





I did fiberglass over the openings for the factory tweeters for cosmetic reasons but that wasn't necessary for the install

Looking at the pictures, it seems that the tweeters are very closed to get in the way when the door close. Could you tell me the exact model of your Boston tweeters so I can lookup the exact dimensions of them on Google? Or if you know the dimensions already it would be helpful.

Thanks!

i havent found any dimensions on them.. but yes it is a very tight fit... its the Boston Acoustic S60 series 6-1/2" components. as far as i can tell all of the boston acoustics component sets come with the same mounting brackets for surface mount tweeters

for my rear speakers I have rockford fosgate slim mount 6-1/2s all I had to do was cut out the brackets for the rear and they fit barely with a 2" top mount depth, but I did have to trim the back of the speaker grilles to prevent the cones from hitting
