Review on Speaker Adapter Spacer Rings SAK011_55 1 by Robert Corral

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Be sure to check the size of the speaker mounting holes.

Dakota CC '98 with Infinity Sound. I was trying to make this speaker replacement cheap, so for the faceplates I used factory plastic speaker brackets to mount 6.5" speakers using #8 5/8 sheet metal screws and a 1/8" pilot hole . There is enough grip to hold the speaker firmly. You will need them for the back. Be sure to check the mounting hole size for your speakers. The first ones I tried (SSL EX365) had a mounting hole size of nearly 5 3/4 inches and didn't fit properly. Rather than try to hack them, I found another pair of speakers sold by Fry that claim the size of the mounting hole. 5.59", and they fit perfectly. Not every manufacturer specifies the size of the mounting hole, it is better to take this adapter to the store first and try it. The screws provided, after tightening, stick out on the other side, I put a few layers of electrical tape on it so there was no hum Metal on metal Boosted the bass and didn't hear any rumble at all Very happy with it, installing the new speakers was very easy once I found the right speaker Metra 72-6512 or Scosche SHCR03B are good for speaker wiring adapters if you don't want to cut the wire harness.
