hey , anyone have after market speakers in their 09 fit? i replaced it with infinity kappa 63.9i or something like that i forgot the name the 3 ways 6.5" one anyways for the first time sinced i installed those i rolled the windowed down today and it seems like it did not go all the way down , rear windows are ok but the front made a clank noise , i know it hit something but didnt know if it was the screws or the actual speakers, i don't have time to look at it until sunday , anyone have similiar problem? just wanna know before hand so i can solve it quickly when i get a chance to work on it, thanks!

 

I had this problem when I installed my front components. I have an 08 but it should be the same concept. I originally had 3/4 inch spacers that I made out of mdf. These were not enough and my speakers still hit the door. So I added an additional 1/2 inch piece and then planed it a couple of time until it fit. Another issue that I ran into was the wire coming out of the door got in the way of the window as well. I just moved it out of the way and all was good.

These are the components for a size reference if you are wondering

U know now that i think about it my speakers came with some adaptor , gonna try that this weekend , thanks! im thinking about changing my front speakers to component, how is yours? the one i have is way too bright , i need something more natural , not familiar with PG though , thanks!

 

They sound very good. I haven't really heard many other set ups so I cant really give you a good idea on the sound. The highs are a tad bright but its something that I can live with. I am feeding them 75W rms a piece and they take it just fine. The PG RSD65cs are very well liked at their price point.

 

You'll certainly have to use spacers, especially with Infinitys. Infinity speakers are abnormally deep, so they can't always be used. The adapters that came with the speakers may not be big enough, I'd recommend at least 3/4 inch. If they don't fit, you can make some, or head to an electronics store and see if you can pick them up for 15 bucks or so.

 

Spacers were used when my installer did the components set up on my door.
