FACTORY OF A BASE 5.25 front, 6x9 in the back........ fyi, have fun making custom brackets for the door speakers. They are molded into the bracket you just can’t screw them out and put new speakers in the bracket. I think a lot of people are just buying a larger speaker then screwing them into the metal. I used kappa 5.25 and made a bracket with Plexiglas and dynamat. If anyone knows of somewhere that makes a custom bracket for the cobalt doors please post because I would like to know…

6.5" is alot more of a standard size which is why i guessed that originally what they would be, ill go ahead and get 6.5's and if they arent the right size then ill just fabricate a mount for them
