Hi folks,
My friend's Honda Prelude '99 has slim door mounts. He wants good quality components ($200-$250) 6.5" that are under 2 1/4" top mounting depth. I can't think of anything except CDT's slim components. He needs 70-100 rms per channel. You guys have any suggestions? Thanks.

i installed a set of shallow mount comps for a buddy of mine, its a set of Directed CSX650's, can be had for fairly cheap, they are being powered off of his Premier 860 HU and do not sound half bad.. i cant find any Good specs online about them, and we didnt keep the box at my house, but what i did find is this:
Size (in)
6.5
Description
2-Way Component Speakers
RMS/Peak (W)
50/100
Sensitivity (dB)
90
Magnet Size (oz)
1.2
Mounting Depth (in)

here are some pics of them before we put them in the doors:
if you do need any info, i can go by his house and get the manual and all that..

Unfortunately he just bought an amp that runs 75 w rms per channel. That might be too much for your suggested speakers. Thanks for the input though.

Just a thought that you may wanna run past him... If you or he makes a 3/4" thick MDF speaker ring it would add a lot more mounting depth and would open up his options a lot

We thought about doing that, but that would press the speakers right up against the stock grills. It's pretty lame. The Hondas from the 90's are not easy to install.
