I put rockford P162S mids in the doors (here's some pics) and there was more than enough clearance around the back. Go to the RF website and get the mounting depth of those speakers and you can get an idea.

Doesn't anyone have any how-to guide with pictures? I have an 09 Lancer GTS if I replace the stock speaker will I still be able to use the stock tweeters? Or I need a new set of component speakers?

Willl I get more highs by replacing the stock? Or I need to install an amplifier to get this? Thanks much.

How did you get the fiberglass to stick to the plastic your speaker mounts seem to be the best way to do a speaker install...

Does any have a detailed instructions with pictures on how to replace the front and back stock speakers? And does the 09 GTS have a separate crossover box for the front speakers? Thanks.

I noticed there are no specs on which speaker wires are positive or negative. There are yellow and green? Which one is which dudes?

heres an easy test. get a 9v battery and 2 spare wires to attach to the 9v battery. touch the positive wire from the battery to one wire going to the speaker, and the negative battery wire to the other wire for the speaker. the speaker will "pop." if the speaker "pops" outward (away from magnet), then that means the wires are hooked up correctly, and the wire that is connected to the positive on the battery IS the speakers positive, and negative on the battery IS the negative speaker wire. if the speaker "pops" inward (toward the magnet), reverse the wires, and now you know which wire is positive and which is negative. this works for all speakers pretty much.
