Default choose speaker size for front

Should I go with 6.5 or 6x9 for the fronts? I love my Kenwood 4 way 6x9s that I have in the rear and I kinda want to put them up front too.

My van has factory 6x9 all the way through and it sounds great. I think I'll make a wooden mount to fit the 6x9 in there.

I like to do a clean install. I don't cut holes. I'll try some 6x9 and see how it sounds.

Yeah just have to make a mount. Well I can drill holes but to get good sound a speaker needs a good mount.

6 x 9's aren't going to fit well, just got 6.5's.
