They're 6x9 and you may run into a problem with the amp mounted on the factory speakers

I had a problem with depth putting in some Pioneer's. Sorry can't recall the fix, was back in 2004. Well my fix was to have BestBuy do it.

There was a guy on YouTube that showed how to avoid the door amp issues for the wiring. I can't remember what it was.

A search of these forum will get you a couple of examples of door speaker change out, getting rid of the amp.

Shouldn't. The problem only arises because wiith the infinity system the two door speakers have there own individual amp.
