humm I cant get 6 1/2 to fit in 89-LXi.. I have 5.25 in.. If you have a shollow 6 1/2 you might be able to cut the $hit out if the oem baffle thing. I tryed, but my 6.5s are to big(depth)

**88 Accord DX** · 03-14-2003, 11:16 PM

5 1/4's front and back. But you can get adapters to use 6 1/2's. I put 6X9's in the back, but bolted them from underneath the back panel.

Ok I have an 89 LX and I have 6.5" fronts and 6.5" rears stock but I found some 6" X 9" speaker holders from a lxi.

Thank You, sorry for being so blunt its just I didnt think anyone would respond if I didnt.

**88 Accord DX** · 03-15-2003, 01:03 PM

yeah sometimes if you throw in a 'dammit' or 'shit', more people will respond faster.

**Swan** · 03-15-2003, 10:18 PM

yes, the 89 LX-i's have either 6.5, or 6x9's..... for some stupid reason, I downgraded from 6x9 to 6.5....if you use 6.5, you may have to drill a few holes, and bolt the speakers and grills down....

**88' Accord Ltd** · 03-16-2003, 05:25 PM

Yeah i put 6.5" in my 89 EX-i. I had to cut the shit out of the front baskets and add some screws to hold em in. I didnt have to cut anything in the back but I really had to push em in and i had to once again make new places to screw in the speaker. It bolts in fine though.

In my 89 the fronts were a weird size stock and I bought 6.5" inch jensens for the fronts and they were a pain in the ass it get in, I would suggest a component system for the front for sound quality and for easy fit. The back of my LX-i had paper full range 6X9's stock, they were so beat, there was only a cone left, it looked funny!

**Tref_LXI** · 03-16-2003, 08:16 PM

Yeah i only have one stock speaker left in my car. The two in the back went at about 180k. I thought it was wiring in the car, so i checked and checked, but then i decided to check the two back speakers, they had about 3 inches of dirt resting on top of them. Thats from the high miles and living in colorado.

okay dammit i looked today and i have 6 1/2 in my fronts. i did no modding. i knew i wasnt going crazy!!! why do i have 6 1/2 and others have 5 1/4???

***Vanilla Sky*** · 03-30-2003, 07:38 PM

i had 6.5's around... and stock system had 6.5's in the front, none in the back

BTW i had to cut the entire back of the speaker basket to fit the speakers in

**Strahan** · 03-30-2003, 07:42 PM

My 87 LXi hatch had 6.5" seperates at the four corners. Stock had 6.5 all the way around.

**MrBen** · 03-30-2003, 07:49 PM

I have 6.5" 's all around, the guy before me shoved 6.5" in the front. Less work for me I guess.

I'm guessing what size speakers you have is dependent on who had the car before you.
