Roj Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 I have forgot to mention you will need adapter rings! I used Vauxhall Astra / Corsa speaker adapters which I picked up from Halfords for £10. You will have to drill one hole in the door itself to properly fit the adapter. I got it all on my project thread somewhere. I will get you a link! CT25VX02.jpg Ah! Would these fit you think? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/180792812957?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Took me ages to find the page where I fitted the 6.5 speakers but here is the link. Might have to scroll down a fair bit http://civic5.com/forum/index.php?/topic/4232-my-1st-car-project-thread-mb3/page-11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krzys Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 To save searching....If you leave anyone standing first, you're the winner. No comebacks... Well I managed to fit the speakers after breaking a couple drill bits, working in the dark and freezing my a$$ off! But apart from that it was pretty easy! After tuning to default settings I decided to blast out some Pendulum and... WOW! What an improvement! Its got nice mid-range punchy bass and very crystal clear notes. Should sound better once the speakers have bedded-in! Thanks to KiNK43 and Mr.Brown, I wouldn't have done it today without their help! Ah!

(I think!) I don't have a drill remember. And after what Kyfer said I don't fancy borrowing someone else's just to break their drill bits. Would superglue hold those Astra rings on?

Krzys Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 It would probably stay on with two screws dude but you could glue it as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
