T6.1 6.5 speaker sizes

[mattm]

Planning my audio upgrade. Just wondering if anyone knows what depth of 6.5 speakers you can fit in the doors? I’d like to stick with focal flax but trying to work out if anyone knows if they fit before I take the door cards off and find out ?

What depth are they?

I was planning to install 3 way components, but worried they might be too deep. The 2 way set comes in a shallow mount but less power and I really wanted to do the 3 way without bulking out the doors as well.

There is a Focal Access Series 165 set for the T6.1 which looks to have a 63mm depth.

Don't think you will know until you get the door card off and standard speakers out.

I've got focal ISU200 in our van (8"woofer)
Mounting depth same 63.5mm
I think the flax are a much better speaker IF you can get them in

Yeah thanks. The flax are quite deep. I have a set of shallow mount 2 ways in my other car. I did look at the access but thought I might be disappointed going from the flax. The alternative seems to be everyone looks at audison. Or I accept the extra cost of custom mounting the 6.5s as well as needing to do the mids and tweeters. Then beg forgiveness from my partner.
