[s-cars] UrScar stereo head units

Not sure if I can help you re DIN sizes, mods, etc... as I put a single DIN
head unit in my 92 and it sounds like the s6 is different...

However, I have 4" component speakers installed, and can send you a pic
directly if you'd like.

They do NOT fit exactly, because the triangulated mounting surface of the
Bose speaker has a wierd offset .  I do not know of an aftermarket speaker
with the same style basket as the Bose.  They will bolt up directly, but you
need to put some sort of material in between the speaker and the factory
door pod so that they are flush, with no air leaks.  i used weatherstripping
with good results.

that being said, a 5 1/4 might work, provided it's not too deep and you
don't mind modifying the factory door pod more extensively than I did.
IIRC, the depth of the speaker is critical.

HTH,
-Matt, co
92 s4

Anyone know the facts on this?

By the way, Mark, on my sedan I can't imagine fitting 5 1/4" or 5" in the
door location...maybe a four inch, but I've got to pull the cover off and
look.

Thanks,

Steve
