[BlackMark8Li]

I was wondering if anyone has put 6x9's in place of the factory speakers? the factory 5x7's are way too small...

Why dont you just buy the 6x8"s from pioneer, they act like 6x9"s and come in 2,3,and even 4-way configurations.
I had the 3-ways in my T-bird and they were great with the amp in our cars they will sound even better.

Because I don't like pioneer, I like infinity and I don't have the stock system in my car I ripped that pos out the second I got my car.

And I'll just cut through that line... Getting rid of my air ride.

Round components are always better than oval junk.

I purchased adapters for this and it worked great.

Audiobahn makes those sizess as well and they sound really well I think thats what Im going to go with. Good luck with whatever you do.

I have to agree, 6x9's seem to give a lot more sound as well as availabilty, I've got a set of Bostons mounted in the rear shelf, not real professonal, but they sound good....

Kind of on the same subject...

I'm getting ready to install new speakers in my LS and I suspect that these would come in handy:
