Rather than taking my panels off and measuring up what spekers would fit in my e30 i thought someone on here may know

Max speaker size for footwell (will be same on cabs and 2/4 doors i think)

Max Speaker size for rear behind side panels for a convertible

Any if there are any door builds to put bigger speakers in the front, i have got 6" speakers that i want to put in but got a feeling they are going to be too big for the front

HELP HELP HELP :D

5.25" as standard for both. Depth is an issue for the rears particularly. & I think you can fit a 6.5 in the front of a cab with relatively little effort (but that's second hand info so don't quote me) :thumb:

If you do get a set remember that you have to cut a bit off your handles as the cabs have those high sills.........
