Hello,
I was wondering where the speakers are in an 86 Regal. I know where the dash speakers and the rear deck speakers are but crutchfield says that there are two more pairs and I can't find them.
Thank you

dont believe crapfeild there is most likely only four speakers unless you have a highly optioned car there would be a set in the doors like grandnationals with the "concert sound" and if you do you would be able to tell cause at the bottom front of your door panel it would stick out about 3 inches

Agreed. The only G-bodies with more than four speakers were the Regals with the concert sound package. I'm not sure if these cars actually had 6 speakers or whether the door speakers replaced the dash speakers...

Thanks for your replys

How come there are no speaker grills in the back? Doesn't that muffle the sound? I currently do not have a working stereo but I will be putting on in soon. Correct me if I am wrong but I believe that there are two 4X10s in the back and two 3.5"s in the dash.

86+ cars had carpeting over the grills. There is a grill under the carpeted area, and yes it probably does muffle the sound to a degree.

For some reason crutchfield is under the impression that there are speakers on the side panels in the back seat area. I am assuming that this is false but I want to make sure.

No G-body has factory speakers in that area.
