Front speaker install in EK hatch

**BlakTegra** · 07-05-2005 02:24 PM

Hi everyone,

Does anyone happen to know how to install 6.5" splits into the doors?
I've search the forumbut cant find any specific information for my 1997 Civic...

I want to do minimal custom work with my 6.5" Type-X splits. Magnet is quiet huge and also the X-overs!

So have any done this themselves, or know of any online DIY articles to shred some light?

Any input is appreciated.

You mean the metal? Nope. Door skin? Nope.
I only cut the plastic basket to allow more room for the speaker magnet and drilled in a pair of spacers to the existing holes.

Now I'm gonna work out how to lay the speaker cable through to the doors...

Also, thank J-Mun for that!
