This seems to be the standard adapter across multiple nissan/infiniti cars.
If you have the Bose 6x9, a 5 1/4 would be an easier installation just by using a 6x9 to 5 1/4 plate adapter.
Where as this type you will need a adapter/spacer of unknown length. Most high powered drivers have a 2.5-3.5 inch mounting depth. The shallow depth drivers usually cost significantly more for the same total output (neodymium magnets, wider basket). They also inherently sacrifice a bit of bass impact because of the shallow cone depth. |
I know that fitment can be an issue with the rear magnet on the speaker interfering with the window. I spoke to the audio road shop regarding what speaker size would have the best fitment for the Nissan 370Z and they agreed with people on this forum that a 5 1/4" speaker would have the best possible fitment. I know they are smaller speakers but, I am looking for what fits best overall. They ordered Kicker KS series 5 1/4" speakers with Kicker 1" tweeters,and Kicker crossovers. The magnet on the Kicker KS series speakers are pretty flat and not too big. Cone size will not be a issue. I am just trying to figure out what spacer would be best to go with going with the 5 1/4" Kicker speakers? What speaker adapter plate size and brand should I go with that will fit in the front doors in my 370Z?
