1978 monte carlo rear quarter panel speaker

[jkponce]

Just finished installing 6.5 polk audio speakers into the rear quarter panels... it wasn't easy, i was hoping there would be a gap between the panel and the frame but had to saw a hole into the frame behind the panel... sounds amazing! I already have 6x9's in the back window and adding the speakers in the quarter panels really made a difference.

Thanks for the advice brother, after looking at the pictures of the fiberglass panels i still felt like the speaker wouldn't of fit, the magnet is kinda big.. plus i didn't want to spend $60 hahaha...
