Additional Notes

  • The 2000 Lexus GS300 features a rear deck lid position that accepts 10-inch subwoofers, which would typically serve as the primary low-frequency output for the audio system when upgrading from factory components.
  • Both front and rear door panels share identical 6.5-inch speaker openings, allowing for consistency in component selection when replacing speakers across all four doors.
  • The door-mounted speakers accept either midbass or full-range drivers, giving installers flexibility to configure the system as a component setup with separate tweeters or as a simpler full-range configuration.
  • Replacing the rear deck subwoofer could provide noticeable bass enhancement, as aftermarket 10-inch subwoofers generally offer greater excursion and power handling than factory-installed units.
  • The radio cavity accommodates both single DIN and double DIN head units, which suggests the dash opening can be adapted with appropriate trim pieces or mounting brackets depending on the receiver size.
  • A component speaker system in the doors would likely benefit from adding separate tweeters in the sail panels or A-pillars, since the midbass drivers alone may not reproduce higher frequencies with sufficient detail.
