Couldnt find an answer after searching so just want to know if 6.5's will fit without any sort of modification, or are the stock standard speakers 6"? I have had aftermarket speakers in since I bought it but they are crap and arent even mounted at all (they're a big box of something, sound like crap though), slip around everytime I hit a corner!

thanks

dunno if they'd fit mate but splits at the back aren't necessary. some two way speakers are all you'll need. save the money and put it into a better amp, splits for the front or other stuff. the rears are just for fill

I agree, but since my car came with focal splits in the back i aint getting rid of em.

They do fit coz i have them, not sure how hard it was to get them in.

Yep, agreed as well about the smaller mounting depth. When I changed my car speakers, I actually took everything apart so that only the

rears were ready to be mounted. Then I just drove to Strathfield car radio, and some places are nice enough to let you take the speakers to your

car and see if they will fit.

Of course you should do your research first to narrow down to a few speakers that you are interested in first.

yeah i had 6.5" Hertz splits in the back, had to modify/cut the plastic holder a bit to get them to fit properly though and i think some the holes didn't line up exactly in the plastic holder as well, also I left the restraint bars in over the speakers and i found (when i took them out) that the speaker was actually coming up and just hitting the bracket so now there are 2 small divets on the cones (no biggie), but now I have jaycar 6x9" in the back on an mdf shelf and they shit all over the splits

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
