1987 740 wagon speaker size?

Jan 17, 2007 1 Replies

hey all, i admit, it's easier for me to pull the speakers and measure it myself, but i figured i would get a faster response this way. i wanted to upgrade the factory sound system for my '87 740 gle wagon. i did a quick google search, and i got some speaker adaptor links. now, are the factory speakers some strange size? i'm here in america, and the speakers are sold in inches. the two sizes that the local electronic store's web selector thingmabob came up with were 4 and 6.5 inches. does that sound right? also some info came up on in-dash speakers... how many speakers are there in the wagon? thanks, jun


Probably the same as our '85, and yes, they are a weird size. It's been a while since I replaced them, but I think I used 5 1/4 inch speakers and they were a bit small... again, it's been a while.

The adapters sound like a good idea. I just drilled holes alongside the others to mount the speakers.
