well i finally installed my full audiobahn speaker system in here.. you guys are going to love this.

first off, i managed 5.25" in the front, and in the back, i had no brackets. so i had to get creative.

bolted the 5.25 on the drivers side right into the dash. for the passenger side, it almost fit, but i had to use my trashy soldering iron to do some cutting. ended up removing the back half of the enclosure as well as opening up the actual hole. i was very unsatisfied with the results.

for the rear, i removed the stock strut tower enclosures completely. i used the soldering iron as a punch to remove the stock grille covers. turns out an audiobahn 6.5 in bracket drops right in there. used the same iron to join the plastic and blam i have a nice 6.5"midbass speaker with plenty of spare room.

can i punch a hole in the stock s4 door panels to mount the 5.25"'s more effectivly? ive heard that there is a place for them to go, but i havent been back there since i did my door panels.

 

quite possible... just minor sheet metal removal MAYBE... if that

 

what cars were equipped with door speakers stock? was it s5 or s4?

 

I've got an S5 and it has door speakers stock. Its a GXL if that matters.

 

I've fit 6.5" infinity speakers in the front and rear with no problem. Just used the spacers/brackets provided to move the front ones away from the window track and the rear ones from hitting the top of the speaker grills.

 

just a question, my fc has a speaker underneath the passenger glovebox, does anyone else have that?
