Okay, yes i have searched and read through some threads...
Now I have an '01 Camaro. The door and b-pillar speakers both, from the factory, are 5.25". I understand that 6.5 or 6.75 can go in the doors, with a custom bracket. No biggie....
What I dont get is, how do you figure the rears are 6.75 also? Are you guys making a bracket to drop in larger rears as well? I have just glanced so far, so I am not really sure on clearances. But to me, it looks like it may be a bit of work to fit 6.75's in the rear. The door, maybe. The rears????
Also, I have read in some places the rear speakers are dual voice coil subs, but other places I have read different. Either way, I believe they are to act as sub and mid bass, so a coaxial is a waste to put in back there.
For the fronts I am thinking of going with Infinity 6002si, because they have a good sensitivity of 92db, and they are no to expensive. Being the stockers are 2ohms, and aftermarkets will be 4ohms, I believe a good sens rating is required for decent volume.
Anyway, can anyone clarify some of the above info?

Actually I am aware of the two.. And realize the rear hatch area speakers are 4". But the side panel ones, the b-pillars that sit next to the rear passenger seats, is a 5.25" speaker. It looked liked one, so to be sure I measured, and sure enough it is in fact a 5.25, not 6.xx...

well you got 2 choices...
1...Cut the hole bigger to fit a 6.5" and put a sub in there.
2...Audiobahn makes a 5.25" woofer that would work.
