2005 Tacoma Speaker Sizes

[BLK05TRD]

Could someone please let me know what size the Frount speakers are and rears in a 05 Tacoma double cab. Non jbl. Has anyone done the system mod yet. Any advice one the door panel removel process or tips. I was told that all 4 doors were 6.5 so thats what i got. I got 6.5 frount componts Focals and 6.5 Eclipes with a 100rmsx4 amp,. Plaining on doing insoat soon. Again any tips.....

the stock speakers are 6x9's up front and 6.5's (or close) in the rear. i believe cam2xrunner has 6.5's up front in his Xrunner. all you need is a spacer, which you would also need if you used 6x9's.

there is a thread on TS that outlines the door removal. basically only 2 screws then pull the panel off. one screw is right where the door handle is, i forget where the other one is.

tip: dont break door panel, they are expensive. lol, just take it slow if youve never pulled one off before.

The front door speakers are 6x9's, the rear are 6.5".

For the front doors carefully pry up the little cover inside of the door release handle cups. There will also be a screw behind the door handl/armrest. After you take those out you take off the A pillar panel AKA sail panel. When taking that off make sure you take the white clips off the door that will be there once you pull that panel off. If you leave those in and try to re-attach the sail panel you will end up pushing them into the door and you're SOL.

There wil also be a plastic anchor underneath the sail panel. You push in the inside of it for it to release, then pull out the anchor.

It's a good idea to roll down the window when taking off the panel, but not completely necessary. You'll probably want to roll it back down when reattaching the door panel to the door.

To take off the door you can either use a V ended screwdriver that is made for poping off panels, or you can just pull on the door at the bottom. Once you have popped the panel off the door you will lift it up and it should slide out.

I'd definitely take the time to deaden those doors with some edead or rammat. I used edaed v1.se which you can pick up pretty cheap right now.

You can buy this adapter from Marv.





He sell them for 45 bucks plus like 7.75 for shipping. I'm going to be mailing him the tweeters so he can make a mounting adapter for the tweeter as well, which will probably sell for another 15 bucks or so. Email him to get exact pricing. Very good quality

cam, its $45 for both front adapters? plus $7.75 shipping for both? tell marv to throw down a whole front kit for a good price. $60 shipped sounds good, toss numbers around and see what he says. id prolly be interested once he has the whole front kit

[cam2Xrunner]

Yeah 45 for both adapter plus 7.75 shipping. I think he said 75 shipped for both adapters and mounting hardware. Email him for an exact price.
