Additional Notes
- The 1999 Chrysler LHS front door panels accommodate larger drivers than the rear deck lid positions, suggesting that door-mounted speakers may handle a broader frequency response with greater bass extension capability.
- Both mounting locations accept either midbass or full-range speaker types, allowing for flexibility in system configuration based on whether a separate subwoofer is present or if the speakers will reproduce the entire frequency spectrum independently.
- Full-range speakers in the 6.5 inch front positions could provide improved midrange clarity and vocal reproduction compared to the smaller rear deck speakers due to the increased cone surface area.
- Midbass-specific drivers might offer tighter low-frequency control in the door locations, though the rear deck mounting could benefit from the acoustic coupling with the trunk cavity for enhanced bass response.
- The single DIN radio opening maintains the factory configuration, which may limit head unit selection to models without double-height displays or certain advanced control interfaces unless a mounting adapter is employed.
- Replacing the front door speakers first would likely yield more noticeable sound quality improvements since these locations sit closer to the listening position and typically handle the majority of the audio workload during normal listening.
- The size difference between front and rear speakers suggests that factory equalization may have been tuned to compensate for the smaller rear drivers, which could require adjustment if aftermarket speakers are installed.
