Brand Kickpanels
PIO-KCHT-67-72
6.5" 250W Pioneer Speakers
Custom Autosound's kickpanels provide great sound and a no hassle, no modification install experience. We've designed them to custom fit perfectly with the door panels on your classic car or truck. Most of our kickpanels feature 6 1/2” coaxial (2-way) speakers. We also offer optional Pioneer or Kenwood Speaker upgrades. We build our Kickpanels with black ABS plastic and most of them are available with or without speakers.
Ya, same ones I used, only I used my speakers, the ones they come with are shallower so most likely no issue.
I would check to see if the speaker back is close enough to the metal of the truck, I glued (3m weatherstrip glue ) a thin rubber sheet to the speaker magnet back, so I would have no chance of a noise from the speaker vibrating against the cab wall/cowl. Squeaks and rattles drive me up a wall.
