Escort Cabriolet Club Posted August 17, 2007 Share Posted August 17, 2007 Hi mate !!! The MASSIVE replys !!! :icon_salut_gb: Get some 170mm ALPINE speakers and spacers for the front and 100mm speakers for the back, 6x9's are better, I was going for JBL 6x9's like my ROVER but like you say (and most of the other Mk5 MASSIVE peeps) they are difficult to fit without cutting the cards, but have no fear, Uncle Charlzy is working on a solution so keep an eye out !!! :icon_salut_gb: Big up The Mk5 MASSIVE !!! :icon_salut_gb: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Mickusmaximus Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Well i did the same, sat in the back for ages thinking of where to put em! Ended up putting them in the curved bit (next to bk seat) approx 40mm in from side of rear seat to side of speaker and 40 mm down from top edge (where roof catch is on manual hoods) to top of speaker. Cutting out rear cards isnt ideal as the material comes off but sticks back on with spray adhesive Mick :icon_salut_gb: http://s196.photobucket.com/albums/aa179/mickusmaximusuk/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 6tracy9 Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 Have you got a pic of the speakers in and the door cards refitted? Am thinking this is how i should mount mine - although my door cards aren't material - i guess this would make it easier to cut and fit them!
