[s-cars] Project S6 door update

[Andy Schor]

I'm going to pull all the door panels off and clean/lube the locks and 
latches.  Evidently this car came with the standard Bose cassette stereo, 
but had some sort of big system which has since been removed.  There's a 
pair of Monster RCA patch cords under the back seat and some Boston 
crossovers buried under the kick panels.  The Bose cassette HU is in SAFE 
mode, I'm going to replace it with an NOS Blaupunkt that I had on the shelf. 
I don't plan to go overboard on the stereo, but I'd like to put something 
decent together.  What size replacement speakers should I be looking for? 
Front doors?  Rear hat shelf?  Other suggestions?

Wylie was absolutely right, the rear spring perches were installed 
incorrectly.

Thanks,

Andy
