Added 3.5 speakers in place of stock tweeters.

So I decided to change out the crappy stock tweeters.I decided to go with 3.5 Power Bass full range speakers.I was worried they would not work with the stock brackets, but with only minimal shaving of the bracket they fit.The sound stage is so much better now and I'm kicking myself for not doing this sooner. Before I forget I also used a bass blocker.

 

excellent!! i was wondering about this also. i want to use a wideband 3" and then install a tweeter in the sail panel. would you mind measuring the depth you have there?

 

I'd ask for the measurements too, but the 4" I have in my 3 way component setup ain't gonna fit, no way, no how.

 

I can tell u that they fit tight and snug.Their is no way anything bigger would fit.

 

Did you just use the stock tweeter wires?

 

Yea i just cut them at the tweeter.

 

What did you replace the stock 6x9s with?

 

I put PIONEER 6x9's in front and PIONEER 6.5 in back

 

On the pioneer 6x9 do you know what model number was.

 

They look like these.
I was going to try those out. I wonder how it sounds.
Pioneer Ts-A6965r 6" X 9" (6X9) 3-Way

 

How are they holding up so far? I like that idea.

 

bump. I have a '14 with the stupid ceiling speakers and was considering buying an Alpine Power pack and wiring 2 channels to a pair of 6x9s and 2 channels with a 90hz crossover to 3.5s. Just wondering how it's working long term?

 

Update- had this mod for awhile now and it still sounds great.The ALPINE power pack just brings out the sound perfect i would not change a thing.

 

Do you have the model number of the bass blockers and speakers you used?

 

Yes post pics and part numbers/model numbers. We are lazy and don't lie to do research.

 

It's more lack of experience for me, if he has a setup that works I want to duplicate it!

 

I'll check if i still have the box for the speakers , the bass blockers were just generic ones.

 

Thanks

 

Nice

 

I would imagine your highs are being channeled to your 3.5" speakers, and not in the tweeters in your 6x9"s, correct?
