94 Teg speaker installation

[jakop92]

I looked up an online manual and it said the 94 integra houses 6.5 inch speakers up front.

I just bought some Hifonics zx 16.5 components. I measured the hole in the door and its 5 inches (wtf?)

This is what happens when I try to stick the speaker in the plastic spacer (same diameter as hole in door, screws down to door).




It does not want to fit. What the hell? What do I do?
I tried installing it without the spacer, but without the spacer it hits the window. Not to mention.. with or without the spacer its the same diameter.

Here are measurements:

nothing like sticking a square peg into a round hole.

What manual did you read that it said 6"? was it an offical online user's manual?

Online User Manuals can be found here: Owner's Manual

Here is a diagram from the service manual, that isn't on any online database that I've come across:

**Edit: no speaker size was shown.**

Sorry to say, but I think you need to exchange your speakers for smaller ones.

it should be a 6.5" someone must have put those brackets in there.

With or without the plastic spacer the speaker does not want to fit. As you see in the photos.... both measure at 5 inches. I am not sure what to do?

I got them in there. Got some adapters.

I had 6.5'' all around in my old teg, and they fit right in. Some loser probably got a pair of 5'' off a friend or something and had to use brackets to put them in anyway.

Thats odd, because I had no problem bolting some 6.5s in there. I'll take a look at my setup tonight if I have time to go down to the storage unit.
