PLEASE, someone tell me what the stock speaker sizes are- what models etc.
I have a 6 speaker- I guess. 2 tweeters, 2 doors, 2 backs.
I have a VERT, so my rear panels are different from coupe even (I believe).
What are my stock speaker sizes- 8 inch speakers? With an adapter? 6.5 with no adapter?
Please don't make guesses- just "The speakers I pulled out measured like this, and I replaced them with" I don't want to hear confusing guesses- with all this strange numbers like the last thread. Also mention what model car you have, and how many speakers you had.
Looking for vert information especially!
I created a new topic because I felt it needed a clean break from the old topics- where answers were anywhere from 6.5 --> 8 inch.
I'd say your best bet is to take off your panels and find out yourself. There is lots and lots of variation, so that's probably going to be the best way. >

The door panels are easy to take off, all you need is a philips screwdriver and a flat hea screwdriver. If you are unconfortable, check out a Chilton's manual for pictures.
Your door panel is an 8 inch opening with a 6.5" speaker on a adapter plate. This is why people can put 8" or 6.5" speakers in the opening. Stock is 6.5. I dont know about the rears in a vert. I'd assume 6x9's but you dont want me to guess. Its real easy to find out though. If its an oval - they're 6x9's... if a circle then measure. Tweeters - well any size fits. Most aftermarkets are 1 inchers.
My car is a '97 GT Hatch with 6 speakers (i really didnt' know that the celica ever came with 8 - i've never seen it nor do I know where the extra two are) But if your making a aftermarket set up - make it an 8 with included subs. Celi's gotta bounce.
the car is 6 1/2 stock all the way around...and the tweeters...are tweeters. i suggest u get a component sys. in the front and 4 way speakers in the back(3-way if u are not getting subs)
See? this is what I'm talking about...
6 3/4 all the way around.

They are 6.5 all the way around... the front is a 6.5 with a molding around it to make it a total of 8 so you can actually put an 8 in the there... The rears are also 6.5 the bracket is just shaped a little weird so you will have to do a little custom work on either the bracket or the rim around the speaker... not a big deal really you will see what im talking about when you take the panels off... i recently put all mb quart in my car and amped them up thats how i know...

yep...i just took my panels out recently...doors to paint my speaker covers and ack panels to run my rear tweets. stock speakers are 6.5". Front have 8" hole w/ an adaptor so the 6.5 speaker will fit.
Ok, so if I buy a 6.5 speaker, can I use the old ring? or is it attached to that speaker? Will modification be needed to fit an 8 inch?
