can somebody please help me?

i need ideas to mount my 6 x 9s on the parcel shelf .

maybe mdf for space and carpet it or something....please help!!!

I got autobarn to do mine. Cost me $130. Made from MDF and carpeted. They mounted the 6"*9" at an angle inwards so they did not have to cut any structural parts. I think it loofs Phat. And I didn'y have to settle for 6.5".

I love my Kenwood speakers!!

$130 bucks was a bit rich but they had to remove the old one and make and install the new and mount and wire the speakers. I am a pretty busy guy so thats the price you pay!!!

here are some pics attached. Hope it helps

Cheers,

J-Flash :rolleyes:

go to advanced and manage attacthments, browse choose ur photo OK, that should upload them, it will tell you if you have done it or not, make sure they are not to big, 100kb is the size limit..

back to the point, I have the same made for my car so I dont have to have ugly spacers, just didnt ever get around to put in carpet or anything over it, i just spray painted it black .. will do it one of these days :headspin:

I managed to install a set of 6x9's in my R32 without cutting the shelf. All I did was make a set of spacers from mdf and modified them a bit to accomodate the irregularities of the parcel shelf. I did have to adapt the 6x9's a bit but nothing major. Took about 2 hours all up and hay presto. 6x9's in the door and int he parcel shelf without cutting a thing.

just letting anyone who wants to know.... i have 7X10's... Kenwood, in the stock parcel shelf.... with no cutting of metal, they fit and dont let anyone tell you any different... there is at least a 1/4 of a mm of room on around the magnets and until i moved the battery about 1mm of clearence over the batter bolts!!!

Hey, how's it going, I have Alpine Type S 6x9's mounted in the back off my car, and all that had to be done was shave a SMALL portion of the metal away ... it depends what 6x9's you buy, some have small magnets, others, like the Type R's have a huge magnet and needs more cutting ... I'll put up photo's soon - well, as soon as I get my damn camera back :

Have to agree with pooski.

I have 6x9's in R33 rear shelf without cutting or MDF. Just needs to be angled right to follow the "D" cutout of the body.

Hey wat type of 6x9's do u have in yours? I'm after pioneers, just not sure if it fits without out cutting any metals (as i heard that it is illegal to do so).

Cheers
