Removed rear speaker mounts to find 6x9's?!?!?!??!

[BBuncky2]

I have a 92 Accord EX 4-door. I have been preparing to install my speakers for months now. I managed to finally get the tools to remove the back speaker mounts, only to find a pair of 6x9's on the back deck. What is going on?! I have done a fit check on the 6.5" speakers I want to mount and have been told that they will fit. Did anyone run into this problem? I can't mount 6.5" speakers in a 6x9 hole! Did Honda make the Accord with different options for speakers in 1992? I have heard of a Bose sound system or something, but I am pretty sure mine doesn't have that. Also, are the front speakers going to be 6x9's as well? Please, someone help. I am uber pissed. I go to crutchfield to verify that my speakers will indeed fit in the back, and they said it was fine. I need some help here or I am going to go crazy. Thanks in advance.

accords come with either 6x9 or 6.5

EX's came with 6x9's in the rear DX/LX settled with 6 1/2 speakers. you can fit your 6 1/2 in the rear but you'll have to use the DX/LX speaker mount(real cheap at the junkyard and plentiful) or modify your current speaker mount and work it. fronts are going to be 6 1/2 either EX/DX/LX

um im pretty sure you can get a converter to convert the 6x9 to 6.5 or get a mount out of a diff accord

It doesn't matter for the back deck anyway. I admit that 1) the highs are going to be too much with two sets of components and 2) there is no good place to put tweeters in the back seat. I am selling the 6.5 component set and using the money for a pair of Infinity Kappa 693.7i 6x9's (or, if you have a suggestion for an even better pair of 6x9's I'm open to it). I have heard some great things about those Infinity's though. I am selling my 6.5's on ebay. Check out the auction here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MESE%3AIT&rd=1

im not sure about that exact model of infinity speakers, but my friend has infinty 6x9 in the back of his car and the bass is very good and they are very good all around, so they should be good for you, i think you made a good choice

Thanks, man.

I have those speakers matched with the ref 7451a amp and they sound great. Great balance, but needs more bass, so im gonna pick up a couple of subs and recommend the same.
