    pretty much anyone, size is about 5 3/4, the screw holes from factory may line up, depends on the hole arrangement, if anything just drill new holes in the metal bracket, thats about the only mod needed, i have infinity reference 5 3/4 in mine and it fit with only 1 new hole to drill

      I think my stock ones were 4" but the bolt pattern is a bit wierd. Its a 3 screw non-symmetrical or some crap. I used a 3.5" and made adapter plates out of a tupperware container lid. Its not fancy but it does the job.

        I gotta get some newer door panels and do door speakers. I don't feel like making another set of adapters. In the old car I had 4" eclipse point sources. They worked pretty well.

          HOLY CRAP HOW DID I MISS THIS!? I have the ones I pulled out of my Dash, they are 4" JVC 2 ways. I modded the speaker grill/ holder so that it is my adapter. I have pics that I can send you if you are interested. I don't use them anymore because I upgraded to 6.5" Component speakers in the doors. The speakers are JVC 2-way 50watt RMS 100watt MAx 4 ohms impedance. This would mean you would not have to modifie your existing dash to make them work, nor make an adapter. Let me know.

          And yeah, the factory bolt patter is totaly out of this world gay. Not only are they not symetrical in any way, but they are also not interchangable left to right either IIRC, totaly quere if you ask me.

              Mine fit under the existing dash, so no show but all the sound.
