Can you put door speakers in 1985 lx coupe

mustang_letc · 02-09-2004

I have a 1985 lx coupe with the power locks and windows and premium sound and i was wondering if you could install speakers in the door since mine didnt have any. my car came with the factory amp but i disconnected it and removed it. Its now running with a pioneer head unit, two pioneer 6x9s three way, a box with two tweeters and two 6 inch subs and a sub tube 8 inch. When i got the car it only had the two 3.5s in the dash which were blown and the radio was gone.

cutting the doors will cause allot of problems with rust and leaking

I use to own an 86 lx. There is no problem putting speakers in the doors. Its been about 8 years ago, but I believe if positoned correctly
you may not even have to do any cutting on metal. Also there are spacers available that will allow you to put as big as a 6.5 in the doors.
I had 5.25 without spacers.
