I did all the searches and everything, got the new speakers/stereo system. Started with the front, replaced the deck with no issues, replaced the front speakers with minor issues (the new speakers were not as shallow as the originals, but got them in), then went to replace the rear speakers and the frustration starts. Everything that I have read in the forums says that the rear speakers are held in with torx (T10) screws, and yet, all I can find holding mine on the passenger side are 4 rivets. Am I losing my mind, or am I going to have to start drilling?

 

hey i ran into the same problem... i used a 1/8 drill bit and drilled them out. i just did put mine into 94 four door blazer s10. just drill them out and you the screws that cam with the speakers. with the dash speakers was it the instrument panel case you had to file down?

 

Yes, the instrument panel got in the way of installing the fronts...just one of those things I didnt think of when I got the new speakers...

 

same thing happened to me lol. let me know how it goes when u get them in and how it went. also i your running new lines? or just using the factory ones?

 

I am just using existing lines, did not want to get into running new wires, did that on my 1961 jeep....was fun, but not something I want to get back into right now!

 

i was going to in my blazer but i decided to wait till i get a amp for it. i didnt want to do any unnecessary work and wast materials.

 

what speakers did you install in the dash, that you had to modify anything?

 

I picked up some Sony 4x6's...they are just bottom line cheap things, just wanted something I could hear out of which was much better than the stock blown ones...
