Ideas for custom speaker placement
Ok guys, need some ideas and thoughts on where and what type of speakers will work here:
 Right above the heads of me and the passenger seat. speaker size/mounts/wiring I want to hear it all. I know you guys come up with some great ideas so this is why Im posting! Currently all I have is my Sony 200w deck and factory speakers. I plan on changing out the 4 factory with Pioneer 6x8 3 ways but wanted to do 2 more customs at the same time. Do I need an amp? Can I just splice into the rear speaker wires? Will any speaker even fit up here? So lets hear them!!

Re: Ideas for custom speaker placement
I'd get some of those fiberglass kick out boxes for doors or by your feet and cut them to fit
Something like this http://www.amazon.com/SSV-Works-Polaris-designed-Speakers/dp/B0038L1LOW

Re: Ideas for custom speaker placement
Make a custom box to put behind your seats. Your headliner might not be able to hold the weirght of a big speaker.

Re: Ideas for custom speaker placement
My buddy mounted a sub in the headliner of his Mazda P5. It was a shallow sub. Let me find pics....

Re: Ideas for custom speaker placement
That Sub mount is actually pretty sweet!!
Ok, so I went to a friends place tonight after work and we talked for about 2 hours about what we could do with speakers in my Cab and I think we have a semi solution! Instead of mounting speakers on the headliner, I would put 2, 2" tweets on the back wall between the driver and passenger seats. This will eliminate the weight issue. I would just have to build a custom mount to place the speakers into. The 2 tweets would be connected to the rear speaker wire hookups. The front speakers will remain the same but the 2 "rear" speakers behind the seats will not be 6x8", instead Im going to modify the rear mounts to hold 2, 8" round 2 ways and plug them into my amp going to the sub outputs of my deck. This way I get my highs and mids from the front, Highs from the rear center and Lows from the back speaker mounts. How does that hold up? Ideas on a better setup? I havnt bought anything yet but am looking to do the most with my sounds system without spending huge bucks! Remember I have a standard cab so I dont have the room to play with 10s or 12s!! ~TT~
