Additional Notes
- The 1989 Eagle Premier front door panels accommodate 5.25 inch speakers, which can serve as either midbass drivers in a component system or full-range units for simpler installations. The rear deck lid positions accept 6x9 inch speakers designed for full-range reproduction.
- Replacing rear deck speakers may provide a more noticeable impact on overall sound quality due to the larger 6x9 inch format, which typically offers greater bass response and higher output capability compared to the smaller 5.25 inch front units.
- Component speaker systems in the front would require the 5.25 inch midbass drivers to be paired with separate tweeters, likely mounted elsewhere in the door panels or dashboard area, since the specified opening only supports the woofer element.
- The single DIN radio opening allows for straightforward head unit upgrades without requiring additional dash modification, which can facilitate integration with aftermarket amplifiers if enhanced power delivery to the speakers is desired.
- Full-range 5.25 inch speakers installed in the front doors would handle all frequencies internally through a single driver and integrated tweeter, offering a more economical upgrade path than a separated component configuration.
- The 6x9 inch rear position provides a larger cone area than the front speakers, which generally translates to increased efficiency in lower frequency reproduction and potentially higher maximum volume levels before distortion occurs.
