Car Stereos: rear speaker installation, chevy montecarlo, montecarlo ss
QuestionHi, i have a 1986 chevy MonteCarlo SS, Id like to install 6"x9" speakers in the rear, however it is made to take 5"x7" speakers. could you tell me where I can purchase at a store or online , an adapter to convert my vehicle from a 5"x7" to a 6"x9"? I live in Maine and Florida but am willing to travel, or can it be purchased online? ive been searching but with no luck but i have purchased them in the past, many years ago, but cant find them available anywheres now! any ideas?
AnswerI have not seen such an adapter. They do make adapters to make larger speaker holes smaller, but not to make small speaker holes larger. I would just drill holes in the spots where the 6x9's would bolt in. Then, if you really wanted to make some work, you could cut the hole a little larger to not cover the speaker. Hope this helps, Scott
