AM/FM used all three speaker locations in the dash so add two 3.5 round speakers in the outboard locations

I have a phone # for him at home on mt receipts. He used to charge 36 bucks(2003-2005) for each speaker no matter what size. I would send him my speakers and a check for however many I send +12-15 dollars for shipping. He would turn them around for me in about 2 weeks( long enough for the check to clear I bet)

I sent him maybe 30-40 speakers to do over a two year period, I've had em back sometimes in about a week.

Do you plan on using the rear speaker fader knob on the dash?

I'm guessing you'd still need the crossover box for this application.

As long as you use the factory crossover box, you can run the center dash speaker, and just substitute the 2 outboard dash speakers, for the two rears . You will have to run a bunch of speaker wire , but by doing it that way, you won't use a fader .
