There should be a 5 1/4" in there regardless, maybe a 3"? speaker too.

I've fitted 6 1/2" in mine because they were free....

The grill you can touch doesn't touch the speaker, The speaker is mounted to the back of the door panel.

I don't know if the cars w/o performance sound or bose or whatever have but here'* mine

2) 5 1/4 in door [hidden behind door panel]
4) 3.5'* [two in front doors, two more on rear deck]
2) 6x9'* [both on rear deck]
2) [there are also two speaker cutouts on the dash, but I have no clue how big they are, since I don't have those]


I think the lower models don't have the 3.5'*, but have speakers on the dash.

It all depends on the year from my experience. ALL Bonnies from 92-99 have the 6x9s in the rear (and if you have the Bose/high-end system there are tweeters back there too). As for the fronts, they differ depending on the year. Early Bonnies (92-93, maybe 94) had 4x6 speakers in the doors. This I know as I saw one in the local junkyard with those speakers. Other years use the 5.25", however the Infinity Speaker website does list them as having 6.5".
