5.25" in the doors if you have concert sound II, 3.5" on the dash all cars, 4x10" in the rear you can get 6x9 adapters for it but some argue they don't work well.

Can someone actually give a link to where I can purchase the exact speakers that FIT our cars?

I'm not knowledgable at all about buying the speakers. Can someone find me a link to where I can buy em? I don't like having to guess and choose and then have it come and I screwed up! Someone give me a link!

They will show you what speakers fit, also if you order 6x9's they will send you new speaker brackets so they will fit. The dash 3.5's are getting hard to find you'll have to seach around for those it you want to stick with factory replacements.

....and thats the woofers and amps fault, or the volume control knob?!
only playin w/ ya. I am w/ ya on the tickets (eight 12"s and 4400 watts on them....) but when I went to no subs, music sounded thin. If you insist on no subs, buy a great set of 6x9"s, baffle them, and see if they can atleast pick up some bass, and maybe a lil sub bass. Kicker F69 was a free air 6x9 from years past that was as close to a woofer 6x9 as I ever heard...no baffles needed, just isolate them from the trunk (no air leaks in the mounting).
Regardless, good luck and post up what you end up doin.

ive always heard that with 6x9's and the adapter that u can clear the trunk springs unless u just take them out...
i could imagine that because i have some kenwood 4x10s and they mount just like factory but are much much deeper than anything factory...

this is where i bought my 4x10's from
KENWOOD KFC-415C 4X10 2 WAY 160 WATT CAR SPEAKER SET! - eBay (item 260219500168 end time Mar-18-08 06:56:45 PDT)
i got a set from in town around 1999 and they worked fine until 2006 my rear window got busted out and they got rained on...so long story short i needed a new set.

ive always ran subs but the 4x10's hung in there all that time without mesing up.

i got the 4x10's in the back tweeters in the dash and im about to build some pods for 6.5's in the doors. im gonna carpet them so they look close as original as possible rather than all fiberglassed and shiny

to me ebay is the best prices hands down..just stick to a store on ebay thats sold thousands and have a near perfect rate..

crutchfield is a very good dealer help you in anyway but you also pay the top dollar for it...so it depends what route u wanna go.
