This is about the dash speakers.

In the first pic, you can see the size difference in the stock speakers and the Kenwood 4". I looks like the dash grill is designed to use 4" speakers. Whey they didn't I have no idea. The 4" speakers fit perfectly on the driver's as you can see in pic 2 and bolted right up. I used some foam to keep the speaker stabilized so that it won't rattle, since only two screws only holding it in place.

The problem came in the passenger side. The dept is too shallow thanks to what I think the factory stereo amp behind the speaker. I didn't have time to pull the dash apart, but I'll have to see if I move the amp back or relocate it to fit. For now I had to leave the stock speaker in place on that side.
