Additional Notes

  • The 1998 Mitsubishi 3000GT front door panels accommodate 6.5-inch speakers, which can accept either midbass or full-range driver configurations depending on the audio system design.
  • Both rear door panels and rear side panels share the same 6x9-inch oval speaker footprint, suggesting a factory configuration that prioritized full-range sound coverage in the rear listening area.
  • The midbass compatibility in the front positions indicates these locations may work well with component speaker systems where tweeters are mounted separately and crossed over at higher frequencies.
  • The dual 6x9-inch locations in the rear may provide redundant coverage, which could allow for selective upgrading where one set of rear speakers is replaced while the other remains unchanged.
  • Full-range speaker options in all positions suggest the factory system likely relied on broadband drivers rather than dedicated tweeters in most locations, which is common for vehicles from this era.
  • The single DIN radio opening provides standard aftermarket head unit compatibility, though the depth behind the dash should be verified before selecting replacement units with larger chassis designs.
  • Upgrading the front 6.5-inch locations may yield more noticeable sound quality improvements than rear speaker replacement, as front staging typically contributes more to the perceived audio image in the listening position.
  • The 6x9-inch format in the rear allows for speakers with larger surface area than round 6.5-inch drivers, which can produce more output at lower frequencies when replacement units are selected.
