Is this speaker would fit? (pics inside)

IM just a big fans of audiobahn products, and im planning to change my stock speaker. What do you think guys is the better speaker between the 2 and do you think it will fit in my car? Thanks for the opinion....(1stspeaker:Mounting Depth: 2-1/2, size:6x8/5x7................. 2ndspeaker:Mounting Depth: 2-1/8 size:5x7/6x8)

If you look at your door carefully you will see that the 3 has (6 1/2) so the speakers you are talking about wont fit.

I personally like the new Infiniti ones.....s*** i forgot the model number...

w.e. Im going to redo my stock speakers and put in a 12" sub....as a starter, and ten ill see what happens....ill keep you posted !
 
They're 6x8.... not 6

WRONG!!!!!

Those speakers are 6x8 all around... even though the grille is round.

Dhong_usa, have you checked the Pioneer REV 6x8 with yellow kevlar cone? They are very nice and have a built-in 2 way crossover. That is what i am planning to put in 4 door Mazda3 GS.

Ive seen a lot of forums and Im sure that the speaker on 3 are 6x8. Eventhough the speaker grill is 61/2 in size its still a 6x8. Try to make your own research and find out if its really 6x8. Anyway thanks for all the comment, i just decided to buy infinity typeR 6x8.

hey dhong_usa!

What speaker did you finally install?

I installed Pioneer TS-D680R in front, but i am looking for a cheaper solution for the back doors and nothing else in Pioneers catalog will do it for me. So i am tempted to get Audiobahn AS68Q convertible speakers and may even use them without the tweeters as midbass only speakers for the rear doors.

i have never heard Audiobahn speakers and would be mail ordering from Etronics. So i would like to know what kind of sound i can expect from Audiobahn speakers.

Thanks.
 
The speakers are 6X8 / 5X7 , you can fit a 6.5 component with a custom bracket. I just dropped some cdt's into my 3.

I know that! thanks!
I need a direct fit 6x8 speaker, no custom brackets. I park in the street and needs my install to be as simple as possible.
