1994 Ford Explorer 2 door
Getting ready to instal all new speakers. Already got a new deck, subs and amp. I know the rear speakers are 5x7's but what are the door speakers? Dont want to pull door panels apart twice. Thanks guys

6X8 front and back. Some 5X7's are made with brackets that will bolt to the opening.
 






What he said
 






being a two door they are still 6x8 in the rear?
 






5x7's front and back....
 






The front of my 94 is 5x7, back is still stock
 






Replaced two decks and speakers in the last month, and the consensus seems to be that the speaker manufacturer specifies 5x7 or 6x8 depending on what they make.

I went with full-feature decks and very inexpensive speakers because I do not want to amp the decks. So far I am pleased with the speakers, but I am not an audiophile. These speakers fit perfectly in all four doors.
 






Since you have a 2 door you can remove the rear panels, remove the steel housing that holds the 5x7 speakers and cut it out to make room for 6x9's. Hard to explain without seeing the speaker brackets.
 






6x8..... I got my "new" speakers from a junkyard to replace the 19 year old factory stock. I found 4 matching Jensen speakers for $13. I know Jensen isn't top notch quality, but considering what it replaced, it was a vast improvement.
 






6x8 or 6x9's........but to clear it up I've always used 5x7's all around with no issues at all
