My CL team. So I've been doing alot of research online of how to "outfit" your car with aftermarket speakers to replace the factory ones. I went to places like crutchfield to see exactly what sizes I need but it doesnt bring up what I need for the center woofer that I have in the rear, so with that being said, i dont really trust what it is saying. Could you let me know what sizes exactly that I need to buy. Please let me know if below is correct:

Front: 5-1/4
Rear: 5-1/4 or 6-1/2?
Rear center woofer:???

I'm trying to get all speakers replaced, then get a amp to push the after market speakers with an EQ installed in the glove compartment to control the factory unit (i want to keep factory) with an Ipod kit.

What you guys thitnk?

 

Wouldn't it be easier to purchase another subwoofer, and take out the ML subwoofer. I believe it's a10 inch subwoofer.

 

so It's a 10inch sub in the rear center then? cool. I'm going to buy some fosgate 10inch woofers to replace the factory ones.

 

I'd like to find out as well, I thought they're 6.5"s in front and back doors?

 

Yeah but I think he was talking about the rear sub woofer in the middle of the rear deck.

 

i believe the IS and GS share the same IIRC

 

Much success with replacing the sub. I've read that it's hard to find an "open air" sub replacement for the ML sub. Let us know what you come up with. I refuse to put a sub box in my trunk for a replacement.

 

do the 4080 enclosure which takes up hardly any space

 

Here is a picture of your sub (I took this when I installed my XM unit.)... I could have swore it was a 8" Might have been a 10"... But I think its an 8".

Either way. You have some clearance issues with the Trac battery and vent system. No, you can not re-route the vent system.
The other thing is I wouldn't put a massive magnet near the battery pack. Not saying it would hurt anything. I just wouldn't gamble on the what ifs.

 

You could be right, but I'm pretty sure a 10" can fit in that place. I think someone on the forum did it.

 

Found it! Thanks bro!

I'm not sure if that link above ^^^ still exist because I tried to pay with PayPal and PP site denied the payment.
Anyways LMK if it work for anyone else.

 

Yah it def looks like an 8inch. I'm determined to find another 8inch that will fit in there. The ML systems sucks so bad, I hate it. There has to be a way.

 

I too will never put any type of enclosures or boxes in my trunk.

 

Its a 10 inch.
