[W126 Coupe] speakers

Mon Mar 28 14:03:36 EST 2005

My SE is an 85 so it should have the same set up as your SD. I'm intrigued by the fact that everybody says this car can take 4x6 in the front. I wonder why Crutchfield doesn't know that? From looking at the front speakers I know why: while 4x6 would fit the stock speakers are 3.5. Also, from looking at the front speakers I can't figure how to get them out. I see the two screws closest to the body of the car, and I took those out. Something at the front is holding it in but I see no screws. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Richard

What year is your SE? I have also a 1984 300 SD. Both bodies might be
similar. If so, you can replace both the front and the rear with 4x6
speakers. And I find out to get a better sound I replace the speakers with
4x6 plates.

I'm going to operate on the assumption that the SEC's have the same speaker
mounts in the dashboard and rear deck as the SE's here, which may be wrong
(I'm told by Crutchfield that the fronts are 3.5inch diameter and the rears
are 4x6's on an SE, but I'm told by someone with an SE that they are all
4x6, so if someone can settle this that would be nice too), but either way,
what are good speakers that fit that can be had for no more than $100/pair?
Thanks,
Richard
