Crutchfield isn't always right, I fit some Type-X Alpine components into a ford focus' front door.

 

My wag has a blown rear driver side speaker. My door panel is in peices in my garage. Going to check out speakers tommorow morning.. I'll let you guys know what I get and how it turns out.

 

just ordered some alpine type-r for the front. i'll see how well they work out. already got a set from costco for kicks and they totally sucked. get what you pay for.

 

kicker KS series in the front
dont bother with the rears.they are just fillers and you can faze them out.

 

I put Polk DB 6.5" up front and 5.25" in rear with adapter plates from I-A Performance, no problems, in my '03 wagon.

 

2005 have more depth available than 2002-2004.

 

as long as you will be amping them. for deck power, type-s work a lot better. i had many speakers in my wrx including type-r and type-s. ended up with pioneer prs720 set utilizing a 1" spacer in front of my 2005. just barely fit.

 

DO NOT waste your time on upgrading the rear speakers on our cars. They're in a horrible position and the only thing you get is a little rear fill. Take the money you save on the rears and upgrade to better front comps OR get a small sub/amp/box setup.

You can still get a 4 channel just use the front two channels for the fronts and bridge the rears to a sub. You will be MUCH happier...trust me I have been through all of that.

In case this isn't clear...don't upgrade/replace the rear speakers in our cars...you are wasting money.
