Onlinecarstereo.com said 2in in the front and 2.75 in the rear. Not sure if they are right, and I didn't check myself sorry! Crutchfield does a good job of only getting you things that will fit, came free with 6x9 to 6.5 adapters and connectors, so there was no splicing.

not trying to be mean, but crutchfield errors on the side of safety and they are expensive. As far as mounting depth is concerned i posted pretty exact measurements in this post

These guys really know their stuff and they have good prices

Crutchfield 3-way Kenwoods, I believe they are 1662s or something, they sound good for 50 bucks a pair.

Well while I am waiting for my sub enclosure and wiring kit, I decided to do a couple other mods. Blacked out head lights, which is a pretty tough mod that requires some patience. Its almost done, I just have to clear coat them, and seal them back up. I should be getting my HID's soon too. I also picked up a cheap led interior glow kit, that ed out to be good quality, and very bright. Installed the front, waiting for the box to do the rear. Here some pics..

Control box for LED, will probably hide this in the future behind the dash or something.

Well finished the black headlights, they look really good in my opinion. Not the best pictures but you get the idea. Now the real test is to see if they fog up. At first I used low gloss paint, it was like flat black. Did few more coats with semi-gloss, and that looked much better. Used gasket maker, and then put clear silicone all around the light. Hopefully it wont fog up, but if it does, guess i'll just wait for black headlights to come on the market.
