Title: stereo speaker replacement
Post by: jrbarrie83 on September 16, 2013, 10:07:50 am

Did a search, but didn't find quite what I was looking for.  I need to replace the front stereo speakers and was wondering if anyone had a good source.  I'm not looking for anything special - just something that will sound good and fit in the original slot without additional brackets or wiring.  This is for an '83 Silverado.

Thanks!

I used these pioneer 3.5 inch speakers.    
PIONEER TS-A878

Use the "Outfit My Car" feature at Crutchfield (http://www.crutchfield.com/app/car/carselector.aspx) to get started.  It will ID the speakers that fit in the factory locations.

i use a dual voice coil 4x10 speaker in the center and then branch out a 3 inch planet audio tweeter off each side of the center speaker in the factory holes on each side of the dash.

I don't stock them, but I can get these.  I sell the radios also..
