A lil side bar to the project.

Was originally not going to touch the speakers, but what the hell, I had everything apart, they were calling to be upgraded and I cant leave anything alone, I would dwell on it later, so yeah....

Upgraded the sound system to Infinity speakers

Infinity Kappa Perfect M300 3.5" for the rears and front dash speakers.

Infinity Kappa Perfect 600 for the doors.

Kept everything else stock


Rear 3.5"
Made custom adapter out of 1/4 ABS plastic





Front 3.5"
Made custom adapter out of 1/4 ABS plastic
Transferred over the capacitor and connector from the factory front dash speaker







Front 6" Speakers
Cut out the stock 6.5" door speaker and modified the housing with 1/4 ABS plastic, to hold the new 6" speaker.













Was it worth the $$$$?

HELL YES!!
Sounds 3x better then stock, even without a subwoofer!
Could not be happier with the results!

So stock amp and head unit and you got much better sound just from speakers?
