okay so I have an extra pair of infinity 6.5 reference series speakers.. I was thinking hey what the heck i'll just mount these in my car.. so i have a 01 gp gt.. it would be simple for me to just mount them in the rear doors.. but would that be too much sound coming from behind me? does anyone know if there's a front kick panel kit that would point the speakers up towards my ears? I would make my own but I'm not sure how I could get it to point upward and be clean looking.. thanks for the ideas!
 


yeah but I got rockford punch component with the tweeters high in the door in the front already.. i don't want to change those. they can handle a lot more than the infinity.. but i figured since I have extra's why not throw them in and see how i like that. I would do the kick panels... it would be nice to find a kit though so I know I won't screw anything up.
 


Another spot would be on the side panels of the rear seat IF you have the 2dr GP. I have seen a few folks cut out the area and fashioned their own bracket to fit a 6.5" speaker there. Looks pretty sharp when done properly.

Frankly I would NOT recommend putting them "under" the rear seat. It will muffle and distort the sound rendering them useless :( I replaced my Bose 5.5" front door speakers with a pair Memphis Audio M-Class 6.5" speakers. I just dremeled out the bracket to fit the speakers and walla nice upgrade to the front speakers!

I ment like when your sitting on the seat put them were your calf would be not under but infront and under if that makes any sense.

thats what i found and i was wonder if anyone has put these in there car? and if they could be modded for 6.5"

No need to mod them. They also make a kit for a 6.5 inch speaker. You even get to use the infinity grill and tweeter, both of which mount directly to the enclosure. I know they are pricy but that is exactly what you want. They look beautiful and the speakers fit and sound great, the plastic even matches the factory. I have a pair of infinity components in my front doors and A-pillars. Sound great. But I would take a hard look at the q-logic kick panel kit before you write them off. I love Q-logic, they were the only enclosure I would buy before I started making my own. Hope this helps.
