Installed a new driver side window glass run. While I had the panel off, I noticed that the speaker had cracks on it. I am going to shop for a replacement. I have don't plan to replace the HU and furthermore I always prefer to keep the truck as stock as possible. My first choice is to fit the speaker in under the stock grill without much modification. But don't think such option exist for 96 LX. So here are my alternatives:
(1) Pioneer TX-G1641R - there are quite a few write-up about it and it looks like on LX, the steal mount needs to be cut in order to fit the speaker behind the stock grill
(2) Polk DB651 - They are probably better speakers than the Pioneer, but the stock grill will have to go. Honestly, the Polk grill isn't bad looking at all.
(3) Polk DB501. There was a write up a few days ago about using the 5" speakers. They are smaller, but if I can fit them in without altering too much stock components. I will certainly considering them...
What do you guys think?
