93 Ranger Speaker ?'s

[93splash]

Hey,

I have a 93 Ranger Splash with the 4.0. The other day i put in some pioneer 6x8's in the rear along with a pioneer deh-4900 anyway, i was at my neighbors house last night and we were going through his car stuff and has some brand new boston acoustic speakers. He was like take them if you want i have no use for them.

The only problem is that they are 6x9's and in the rear of my ranger are 6x8's. If i can somehow get them to work in the rear of my ranger i will put the 6x8 pioneer up front in the doors.

If you know of anyway to get 6x9s in the back speaker panels of a ford ranger, please tell me because i really don't want to sell these speakers.

thanks rusty

dd you ever find out? mine are just stuck in the old hole I thought they were 5 by 7 ? I thought I seen some plastic adapters or spacers. I was looking for some cheap ideas. I may cut the holes out, why not?

Cut the holes out bigger.

yeah

no reason not to cut it

whats the easist way to make a pattern? Does it help to use insulation in the back.

I would think cut a piece of cardboard to fit around the back of the speaker itself, then use that to make your pattern on the door, speaker box, etc.

I will give it a try. It seems a pain to get the pattern just right. I should be able to do it. Thanks for the push, any idea on the foam or sometype of insulation behind the speaker? I had a 88 caprice classic that had a baffle on the bottom and it seemed to make the speaker sound better. That is why I was asking.
