I just recently made a speaker purchase through the Crutchfield this past
week. I first went to the web site http://www.crutcfield.com, and entered
our 78B as the car for which to search for speakers. The result was 4.5 in
speakers only due to mounting depth. I called and spoke with a technician
and got the same result.
When I received the speakers, the install sheet specified that I could go
all the up to a set of 6.5's as long as they were shallow - < 1.75" if I
recall correctly.
All in all I am happy with the purchase. Our panels have the cutouts which
made the 4.5 install a breeze, but it would have been nice to have gone
larger. Since I am not looking for terribly high fidelity, these will do
just fine for now.
