6.5's fit in my 2000 Z28.. The factory sizes are odd, so I've asked this question also..

On circuit city, pretty much all it says is 6.5, and then other sites say 5 1/2 or whatever, so yeah, confusing.

6.5's in the front. I needed an adapter plate for a 6.5 to mount on all four corners in the rear. It's actually a 6-3/4. Polk makes them, and I believe Alpine might have, but they might not make them anymore.

If I have the bose system do I have to replace both speakers AND the subwoofer too? Or does the subwoofer not matter.

The stereo section would probably be a pretty good place to ask this question.

i have a 94, 6.5's front are easy... rears are not that bad, but 6.5's again for the rear, and SPEEDCLIPS, unless you are going to just use self tapping screws to secure the speaker

and i had bose system to.. there are no speakers in your rear sail panel, best bet is to run speaker wire in the panels and hardwire it right to the harness of the stero * fyi, GREEN = DRIVER REAR +, GREEN and BLACK = DRIVER REAR -, PURPLE = PASS REAR +, PURPLE and black = PASS REAR - as for the sub, its your choice, with the new output there is a good possibility you will blow it anyways
