Anyone know the speaker size in the front and back? Halfords is calling to me

Grill easy enough to pop out?

I can't remember it off the top of my head but I remember asking that very same question some time back - try the search function..

pretty sure it's 6.5" for the Front and 6x9 in the back...

search is your friend tho :-)

I think it's 16.5cm for the front and 6*9 for the back.

Well if that's the case I'm going to put the Xplod's from the felicia (back speakers and head unit) in the fto and I have my eye on JBL's in Halfords for front. They sound one of the best in the demo and resonably priced too!

Thanks guys.

Typical, sold out!

As a matter of interest, anyone know what facia would fit? No FTO mentioned in the halfords book obviously... :roll:

front speaker grilles just clip out.

I had to remove my back seat to fit the rear speakers. screwing in the rear screws is tricky enough as the back window gets in the way.

maybe try the stereo from the Felicia (I remember you mentioned it was good) with your existing speakers and see how that sounds.

Nope, those tinny front speakers have to go, they are driving me insane!!!

Ebay is my cheap friend, so screw halfords!

I had my eye on them as well, they told me they were sold out and they were not reordering. They also told me they couldn't get anymore etc etc, :cry:

but every time i was in the area I went in and bugged them until one day 6 weeks later He went into the stores and brought me out a pair.

There easy to fit and sound very good! :wink:

Yes, if they are the standard ones that everyone is saying they are...

That's the impression I got. So that's why I went to ebay and got them for E20 cheaper than their special offer price on them.

Can you show us the eBay link you used - sounds like a great deal

by **optical illusion** » Tue Jul 08, 2008 9:52 pm

Yes, nay a problem... He's not THE cheapest, but for the sake of 2 euro, I preferred his feedback...
