Post by: timthescarrd on July 20, 2015, 11:36:20 am: I found a truck in the junkyard that had factory brackets for 4x10 speakers in the corners behind the seats. I was able to use a grinder to cut out the holes and make 6x9s fit there, they are a little muted by being behind the seat, but i put two 3.5" rounds in the dash and now the setup sounds good.

Post by: harcorshe on July 20, 2015, 05:35:13 pm: I have a 78 K20. It does not have holes in the dash for small speakers, instead there is a single (broken) 4x9 speaker in the middle. I used this space to house my amp.

When I got it, there were 4x9 speakers in the rear. I changed these to 6x9 using the excellent brackets from 73-86.com.

I also put 6 inch speakers in the door (the PO had already cut holes).
