Do 10's fit in the dash? I thought i had read that theyre slightly too big :sad: seen some on offer at the local shop but didnt think they were fitable.

Depends whether your happy with a bit of triming of the dash material. I've hacked mine up in the past and fitted bigger speakers. The grills cover anything you do under there anyway.

yea i wouldnt be too bothered about that... is the sound quality any good with 10's? i was thinking of taking them out all together and buying the door grills.

Well that's the other option if you don't want custom door builds or you wnt to keep it OE looking.

You can get some components and fit the big speakers in the door grills and the tweeters under the dash grills.

In the past I have had Sony 10cm speakers in the dash and they were pretty good but not amazing. I'll be getting these JBL's in the new year (Front and rear) so I can't comment on these ones just yet!
