Anybody know? I could go down to Circuit City or something, but 3 out the 4 times I tried to get that info from them, it turned out wrong! Thanks!

Yup, agreed with Justin.

I have 5.25 up front in my 88 and 4" in back. I had to modify both so they'd fit. The fronts were too large, and the rears just slightly too small.

I put 4" Infinity Kappa 4.25i in front. The rears are some odd size so I left them stock. But for sound, you really need to replace the rears too.

i've got 6.5" 150w rockford fosgate's custom mounted up front, and pioneer 300w 6x9's in custom boxes mounted in the rear facing forward. sounds really good. really crisp, even when the volume is very high.

Got a design on this rear box? Sounds pretty good considering today I discovered that the guy before me took my rear speakers out and i'm looking to upgrade them.

basically, just look at where the back seats go down to meet the carpet. the boxes fit in there snugly. :) that's the shape. you can get the same style boxes at like, walmart, or any audioshop, or best buy, etc...
