Additional Notes

  • The 2008 Ford Fusion features a component speaker arrangement in the front doors, with separate 1.5 inch tweeters handling high frequencies alongside 5x7 inch full-range drivers for mid and low frequencies.
  • Both front and rear door panels utilize the same 5x7 inch full-range speaker size, potentially simplifying replacement choices when upgrading multiple locations simultaneously.
  • The rear deck lid accommodates larger 6x9 inch full-range speakers, which may provide enhanced bass response compared to the smaller door-mounted units due to their increased cone area.
  • Replacing the factory speakers with aftermarket full-range or coaxial units in the 5x7 and 6x9 locations could yield noticeable improvements in clarity and output across the frequency spectrum.
  • The separate tweeter mounting in the front doors suggests that installers might consider component speaker systems as an upgrade path, utilizing the existing tweeter location while replacing the 5x7 woofer.
  • The radio opening accepts both single DIN and double DIN head units, offering flexibility for audio source upgrades beyond speaker replacement alone.
  • The 5x7 inch format is sometimes interchangeable with 6x8 inch speakers depending on mounting depth and hole pattern, though verifying specific fitment remains advisable before purchase.
