Have you seen the factory speaker niche, don't think a 6x9 would fit in there with out some modding. I run 6.5's with separate tweeter just like factory set up.

Yeah that was what I was thinking. A 6x9 is a big speaker for such a small spot.

I think the fronts are supposed to be 6.5 but I have 5.25 because they came from my old car and they work fine too.

So are you saying you put 6x9's in a 6th gen's door speaker pods with no mods to the pod?

By chance can you post them here. I would like to see what it would look like or how you do it.

I took out the pods entirely and mounted them to the door panel itself
