that's so strange that they would make that change... are you sure it's a 5.25" and not just a small 6"?

sigh. major PITA

 

I see it is going to take a picture with a ruler to convince you Phil

Just hang on until this evening and I will get you some visual proof.

 

A quick tip: Before you cut, make sure the speaker won't hit the window when it rolls down. Likely you'll need to buy/make some spacers to mount your 6.5"s so they don't go too far into the door. If that is the case, you may not need to make the existing hole any larger.

 

Wow...I can't believe they changed the size of the sheetmetal...that's crazy

 

stupid honda...they apparently thought that the 00-03 stereo was too loud. So decided they 5.25s were enough. Time to get a DYI on cutting those doors.

 

i'm still shocked.

 

This is f-ing crap. My rage I feel right now is immense.

I'll go to my car when I get a chance and measure. I hope it isn't true, but I believe you Kronos.

Grrrr.

 

Honda doesn't care about stereos: look at thier rear speaker option for $500. They're a joke.

Man that's lame. I hate cutting up a new car.

But whaddya gonna do? 5.25's? no way!
