Jim,

I don't think a 6X9 will fit, but haven't even gone there!

You can add those anytime down the road, I found that just upgrading to the
greater power and the built in equalizer really improved the sound from the
factory standard Blaupunkts!

Give it a try before you buy the 6x9's...

OK I have the xplod headunit in the shopping cart. Before I checkout...
Now, I need to ask what's the largest (6x9?) speakers I can squeeze
into the a/c housing in the back?
I know that some of you have done this...
