Front door speakers. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Hey everyone,

I know there's been a lot of questions about the front door speakers. After measuring them today, I thought I'd post the info so it can be referenced easily.

The front door speakers are an over sized 6.5 which equates to a 6.75 inches. The mounting depth available before hitting the window when it's all the way down, is ~2.75 inches, maybe a hair under. For safeties sake, I wouldn't go past 2.625. A 0.75 inch spacer fits pretty well perfectly yielding a total of 3.375 inches of available depth.

Awesome, Thanks! I've seen some other threads posting some measurements as well, but I like to be certain. I have some Pioneer Premier TS-C720PRS from a previous car, they're about 2.7 deep and have a massive magnet/basket. I'm STOKED they'll fit cleanly! :happy0180:

Could the OP or someone else please detail the procedure for removing the front door panel? Pics and/or video would be great

Thank you

Thank you ... I did perform a search but I missed that post somehow.

Thank you

It's pretty straight forward. Look for screws and take them out. The only tricky part is pulling off the silver trim at the front of the handle. But, like most modern cars, the interior falls apart pretty easy.
