speaker installation
hi-
does anybody have any pictures of their speaker installation in the back shock towers. i have been told that 6.5 will fit fine, but that seems too big.

I think the 6.5s will fit you have to engineer a new mount for them though the factory metal plate is to small. I had 6.5s in my 87 TII, my buddy made the new mounts for me out of aluminum.

Again, you can get pre-made adapters from Crutchfield that will make installing 6.5" speakers in the shock towers a snap. I know - that's what's in my car.

Found my adapters (6.5") for the rear shock towers installed on a FC in the junkyard. 4 bucks a pop and they fit perfect!! I had made ones out of plywood but the stock speaker cover/grill would touch the speakers, now it fits and looks great!

I have 6.5s on the towers too, but my buddy and i just made the whole bigger on the original ones, and just sanded it to make it smooth, and just drill the holes, fits perfect
