Undersized Front Woofers - how to retro fit???
Well, I have been using this weekend to install my new gear. I went with Pioneer Premier head unit and component speakers (TS-D720c). Also have Premier TS-802P's for the rear (haven't touch them yet). Well, I put in the head unit (along with the HD and XM modules) mounted the tweeters in the sails and moved to the woofers and crossovers. Well, Crutchfield says the woofers fit, just need to drill new holes. No biggie. BUT... my door woofer holes are 6 inches, the mounting holes (inside edge to inside edge) is a little over 6 1/8 inches. I have an 05 GT and I've never upgraded the speakers on a PT. Is there a trick that I just don't know or see? Crutchfield included Dynamat Extreme speaker kits for free (the 10 X 10 sheets). Initially I was not going to use them. Now that I have already mounting the tweeters in the sails, I am hoping someone with more experience than I has a golden nugget of info or a recommended path. Maybe the Pioneers run small....figures.
