I have a 99 alero, and my friend gave me these new 500 watt 6x9's and i was wondering how i get my rear speakers out, and connect the new speakers?

Pretty sure on on Alero's there is a speaker cover. Pop it off gently and you should have full access to it. If not, should be accessible through the underside in the trunk. Very easy either way regardless

So did ya ever get those speakers installed?

Never worked with Aleros, but any speaker replacement is easy as 1,2,3. If you got the speakers surrounded it should just come right off. The cables should just slip off with a gentle tug.

i was just cruzin the forums and came across this one, abiout 6x9's i own a 90' olds Regency going to put 6x9's in the rear instead of the 4x10's(correct me if wrong)(kinda tired)..but back to my question will the stock rear speaker boxes still fit over the 6x9's? if not what can i do? is it neccessary?

Scosche-cars.com shows 6x9s as stock speakers in the rear? Yes, 6x9s will mount right in place of the stock speaker.

ok so what about the stock speaker boxes?

what about them? yes, the aftermarkets will fit in there...not sure what max depth is....it's just the black carpeted box with two plastic nuts holding it up, right?

alrights, whoa whoa simmer down, i think the one you described where from my old car, these ones are a bit different...

Ah, sorry....I wasn't being angry at all, just questioning what you meant.

Yea, I thought about it while I was taking a shower, they are different.
Not sure about it, should be alright though. They are 6x9s.

ok, well i'll have the proper answer once i try it :p haha, still trying to get pictures of the car

I replaced the silly 6x9's and replaced them with 6 1/2's above the rear deck for some better sound quality.




I also have 6 1/2's in the doors too.

sill 6x9's?

Well, to me. 6 1/2's are better acoustically. My goal is sound quality, so I got rid of the 6x9's. You can use them if you want, I just don't like them.

Yep....a car audio myth that 6.5s sound better than 6x9s because they are round instead of oval shaped...that's about the only argument I've seen, no proof. Nothing wrong with a 6x9, nothing wrong at all.
