Speaker Help!!!

Hello guys, I'm new to the site and need some help! I have a crew cab titan with 2 10-inch kicker CVRs and a kicker zx 750.1 pushing them. all the speakers and hu are stock, and the system sounds great, but i think im ready to add some aftermarket speakers. I really want to keep my 6-disc changer so I have made the decision to keep the factory hu and amp the speakers. Right now I'm leaning towards a kicker 350.4 and sticking with kicker on the speakers as well. heres my problem, if decide to do 4 matching components how hard is it to replace that awkward 2 inch tweeter on the dash with a smaller one, what can be done here?? or is it not really worth the trouble, and just to components in the back seat and stick with a 6x9 coaxial in the front?? Im also consider using a crossover between the two amps and seperating the frequencies before they get to the amp. thank you guys for reading, and I look forward to your responses!

Re: Speaker Help!!!

Take a look at some of these pics. This will show you what could be involved.

08 Titan Stereo Install... CDT Comps, REQ-5, Boston Subs, Premier Amps (Pics)

Tech12Volt (James) is the in house car audio dealer, he is a site sponsor and can get you what you need. I suggest the REQ signal converter, sundown amps and I use CDT speakers. Kicker is ok, but there are better options out there for the money.

Go here for more info.

If you spend some time you will see there are hundreds of posts on this very subject.

I think it'll be worth your while to go through the trouble of getting a good set of components up front. It's not too terribly involved.

I'm not much a fan of Kicker either but, considering most of your equipment is already kicker, might as well get what you want.

Re: Speaker Help!!!

I used kicker 6 1/2 components in factory locations and as you can see from p dizzle's pics any semi flexible metal can be used to make the brackets for the tweeters. i used mdf to convert the factory 6x9 opening in front to a 6 1/2 and sprayed it with a flat black paint so it could not be seen thru the grill. i double stacked 5/8 mdf to make the rear speaker mounts in factory locations.
