Hey, guys! Just bought a Red '05 Nismo CC, and I absolutely love it! However, those speakers have gotta go!!!

According to Crutchfield, almost nothing fits in our truck because the depth is so shallow (3.014", according to them). However, I find it very hard to believe that the speakers they list are the only ones that will fit in our truck.

So, I'm asking this -- if you've replaced the speakers in your '05, what did you install? If you know the mounting depth/height, it would be helpful. If not, I can look it up.

Thanks!

I have Kenwood KFC-6989ie speakers in the front doors. Specifications are here: http://www.bizrate.com/marketplace/p...--7582881.html
The stock speakers are bolted into spacers, but they're easily removed and the Kenwoods fit perfectly into the same spacers. For the back (I have a crew cab) I installed Kenwood KFC-1689ie speakers: http://www.epinions.com/pr-Kenwood_K...ay_~full_specs
These were a little trickier since the stock speakers and spacers were all one piece. I had to fabricate some small brackets to reach from the screw holes on the speakers to the original holes on the door, but it still wasn't very difficult. This combo sounds great, but with the back speakers at ear level the sound is a little unbalanced. The "center" of the sound seemed to be too far behind me, so I installed some small dome tweeters on the front pillars near the grab handles. That was the icing on the cake, and now I'm very happy with the setup. I'm running an aftermarket head unit, but the speakers sounded pretty good with the OEM cd player. Still, it doesn't have enough power to deliver good sound.

I can't seem to edit that last post...anyway, I should have said that I have a KING crab, not crew.
