For the price diference I'm sure someone wouldn't mind doing some cutting and splicing of new adapters. Crutchfield is always outrageously priced. Good product info though. http://cgi.ebay.com/Infinity-Kappa-6...QQcmdZViewItem

I do believe that the only thing you need to look for as far as the 6x9's are concerned is the mounting depth. I am prety sure that you have at least 3" but I can't remember the last time i measured the mounting depth.

The Kappa's won't fit unless you butcher the opening in the door. I bought a set from Crutchfield and the baskets are too big to fit in the factory hole. My Pioneer 4 ways fit fine.

Did we decide if the driver door infinity is for sure a 2 ohm, and will Dodge replace them @ no charge?

Take the good one out and put an Ohm meter across the coils. That will tell you what they are.
As for Dodge replacing them for free....lol.. No, I dont think so. Tough to get them replaced even under warranty because you can easily blow those or any speakers for that matter.

Not that the stock Infinity is a lot better than the non equipped system anyway... LOL

I decided to buy a factory replacement Infinity 6x9. I am pretty good at turning wrenches, but have never pulled a door panel. Should I give it a try and hope for no rattles when I'm done, or is this a car audio guys job? Any tricks to doing this? Any special tools?

take the screws out at the bottom of the door (2) and the middle (1) and the mirror sail (1). There is one 10mm or 13mm behind the inside door handle also. Then lift up on the door skin

Talking replacement speaker

My 07 Ram just blew the passenger side Infinity speaker. I found a pair of 6x9 2-ohm woofers from a 2010 Chevy Cobalt on eBay for $40. I figured they looked good and would give them a shot. They are factory Pioneers and are not paper cone like Ram's Infinitys are, they are a coated plastic material.

Well I got them today and after soldering speaker wire directly to the +/- on the Pioneer, and splicing into the factory wiring they sound great, and IMO hit a littler harder then the Infinitys did. In fact, I was so impressed with the one I rigged on the passenger side, I decided to rig the one for the driver side as well. Don't get me wrong they don't make my truck shake, but for the price and the quality I think they were a great find/upgrade. Also, the plastic speak holder on the Infinity speakers popped right off and fit perfectly on these, no cutting or door alterations were needed.

Finally - I have 1 good factory Infinity 6x9 from the one I took out the drivers side if anyone wants to make an offer

Here's a link to the eBay (don't know how long it will work b/c this is for the same speakers that I bought): http://www.ebay.com/itm/10-COBALT-Am...5f3f8a&vxp=mtr
