Apologies for such a bucket load of 'asks'. :o:

Any info appreciated on...

Letting me know the OE speaker size on pre facelift Cab rear speakers?

Which skirts for pre facelift cabs?

showing some pics of E30's running 9's at the back and some info on how low it is over standard? (trying to establish what springs have been fitted to my car)

Any interior/seating differences between pre facelift/facelift cabs?

I have been through the search facility and although it has answered other Q's I had, given the amount of info that comes up I may have missed things.

Cheers.

Skirts are normally cab specific, though saloon ones can be made to fit.
No differences in the interior really between the two.
And as for the speakers, I can't remember exactly, but they are small ones 5 1/4" iirc.

Thanks for that. 8)

Also meant to ask, is there a difference between pre/facelift rear arches? Having looked through some of the galleries some of the later vehicles are running serious amounts of tuck at the rear?

The rear speakers are 5.25" but not much depth so thin speakers will only work.

I think the arches differ between pre-facelift and facelift but not 100% sure on that

The rear arch is lower on a facelift car.

Pre facelift the front and rear arches are about level, the rear arch comes about 2 inches lower on a facelift car.

Here's a pic of mine lowered 60mm -
