2002XLS Complete System questions...

[SD02XLS]

Alright, I just purchased a 2002 XLS almost bone stock, and had a few questions on what would be the best to go in to my new ride. Im looking to keep the X "stock" looking as possible, while upgrading the sound system.

- Would it be worth it to instead of putting in new 5x7/6x8s to get 5 1/4" components for the front and 6x8s for the back(and if so what 5 1/4" component sets are good for $160 and under?)

- Has anyone installed a Cd Changer in their glove box or center console(and if so how much modification went in to making it work?)

- Anyone installed a sub or amp in the cargo hatches in the floor in the back, or on the left side where the little cargo net pocket is.

- Is there a JL Stealth box made for an '02 XLS and who the heck sells them?

ANY help is appreciated

Some ideas for you here:

I also need help on deciding some good door speakers...

I just put in the Infinity 572.5s and they make even the stock head unit sound good. I got them for $160 for 2 pairs off of ebay.

I also bought Infinity Kappas off eBay, replaced all the drivers for $250.

If you do 5.25" components you'll need mounting brackets.

Could 6 1/4's fit ?? I want something that will push out MID's real good.

You can but it'll have to be done custom. The factory opening is 5.5" by 7.5".

Edit: Also the difference between a 5.25" and a 6.25" speaker at least as far as the middle end goes is rather insignificant. As long as you go with a higher quality driver you should be fine with 5.25" components.

liquidx9 just got 6.5 components in the front and rear, they sound pretty awesome

This should show you some stuff you can do... if i was to upgrade my speakers right now i would probably change to the alpine type r comps in the front and 5 x 7 co axial in the rears.
