Do 6.5" speakers fit up front? How big are the stock t

Will a 6.5" woofer fit in the front? How big are the stock tweeters in the tC? Thanks. Sorry if this has been asked before.

nice. So I can easily put 6.5" components in front and 6.5" coaxials in the back. That's exactly what I needed.

thats exactly what will fit. I used my 6" components up front and some 5 1/4" coaxils in the rear. You can even use the factory mounting brackets for the tweeters. Just takes some easy modding...

6.5" won't fit in the back? Or did you just opt to use 5 1/4"?

just make the front plate out of 1/4" mdf and cut it out for the 6.5" woofer or midrange

You very well can, but the front hole is the larger of the two.

All you need to have done is a baffle made. Personally, I'd get 6.5's up front...5.25's lack bass too much for me

I just went with 5 1/4 in the rear cuase thats what I could get my hands on at the time, and I had to make a bracket for them as they were too small for the hole...6.5's will work just fine
