Aftermarket speakers that fit on the door w/o drilling
 

hey guys,

not very impressed with the stock(base) audio system. However, I'd like to replace the speakers and try to make it sound a bit better. I'm looking for a pair of speakers that I can do a straight swap with the stock speakers w/o any drilling or modification. Do these speakers exist? If so, what brand/models are out there with a decent sound quality? I am a n00b when it comes to car audio.. any help is appreciated!

Any 6-1/2 Speaker will fit with little to no modification, however you need to get some 3/4" speaker rings that bolt into the stock speaker holes. These can be easily found on fleabay. The extra 3/4" depth will allow large basket drivers to drop right in without obstructing anything or hitting the inside of the door. I would use the stock tweeter location as it is also easy to fit tweeters in the dash without cutting or modifying the factory opening.

In your case a speaker upgrade can be easily done in a couple of hours.

Will Polk Audio DB6501's fit without the 3/4" spacer in a 2010 Nismo? And by the way they are on sale today for 55.00 at Amazon. I bought them last month for 110.00 and thought I got a good deal!

The polk db's will fit WITHOUT a spacer ring direct fit and even use the same holes using the adapter ring that comes with the polks.

The only thing you will have to make or cut up is the tweeter bracket. Also I highly recommend running new wires from the crossover to the new speakers.

had jbl's put in mine stock size went with component's compared to the stock speakers the sound is well improved..............

still the hu is very weak still need to change it but can't find a decent one at a good price... deal breaker it's got to be DD, and bluetooth ready for hand free calls any ideas??

If you have a Touring model, I can make you my spacers for $40 and you can use any speaker you wish.

How about this one if you do not want nav. I have been recomending this one to a few people.

iXA-W404 - Alpine 2-DIN 4.3-inch QVGA Touchscreen iPhone Compatible Car Reciever

And than if you want a good amount of power to go to your new speakers. Just plug an play this.

did you lose a lot of bass running the jbl's with stock HU? that's the only thing stopping me from getting new speakers.. would you still have gotten new speakers knowing that you'll never change your HU?

i've been thinking about putting in new HU + new speakers.. but just last night my car alarm went off.. so not so sure about new HU anymore :mad:

no i didn't lose any bass at all it improved.. yes i would have still gotten new speakers knowing i would not change out the HU. (have you seen the stock speakers)!!!! they are a joke.. the only reason i want a new HU is for bluetooth,phone etc and a little more head room for the over all sound..

thanks for the info Big but it doesn't play cd's... to me for some reason a cd can sound better than songs i download from itunes,even when i burn the same song

ummmm.. this is tempting :yum:... what model of jbl speakers you got?

anyone knows if Polk MM651 will fit into the door depth-wise?

I've seen from other forums that the MM651's will give you more bass over the DB651's when running on stock HU. Anyone had experience with these? The MM's cost $60 more .. do they sound better enough over the DB's to justify the additional $$?

thx!

thanks guys been very helpful

Hi Guys, will I be able to fit DLS UP6i's or UP5's into the door of the 370 - with spacers of course?

Probably, I mean I fit a set of ID CXS in the openings with spacers.
