Problem with size of speakers in rear of 2008 Aveo5

[Skalvinek]

yes

[serega12]

yes

So in a sedan you guys have plenty of space where your stock speakers are. With our hatchbacks, the speaker mounted in a very small area and the size is 4x6 with a very oddly shaped speaker mount, so aftermarket 4x6's would have to be "trimmed to fit".

Yes some people have made fiberglass panels and put 6x9 speakers in it.

[screech985]

are they in the trunk cover or in the little side panels.

LOL, that's what I meant... the plastic mounting piece the speaker is attached to. . And 6.5 all the way around is nice... we don't have that luxury in the hatch. Only shallow 6.5 with a spacer in the front. Rear requires a bit more modifications.

Good point. That's why I'm glad I picked the hatch over sedan. Plus I've always been a "hatch" man... Corrado was the last real hatch I had... VR6... Good ol' days...
