Additional Notes

  • The 1997 Mitsubishi Mirage front door panels accommodate 5.25-inch speakers, which may be replaced with either midbass or full-range types depending on the desired audio configuration.
  • Rear deck lid locations accept 6.5-inch speakers, offering flexibility between midbass and full-range installations for the rear sound stage.
  • The size difference between front and rear speaker openings suggests that factory audio design likely prioritized different frequency responses for each listening position.
  • Full-range speakers in these positions would handle the entire frequency spectrum independently, while midbass units would typically require separate tweeters for high-frequency reproduction.
  • The single DIN radio opening provides standard-sized aftermarket head unit compatibility without requiring additional mounting adapters or dashboard modifications.
  • Replacing factory speakers with aftermarket units of the same sizes could potentially improve clarity and power handling without requiring modifications to the mounting locations.
  • Component speaker systems would utilize the existing mounting points, with woofers in the specified locations and tweeters positioned elsewhere in the cabin.
  • The rear deck location typically benefits from full-range speakers since tweeter placement options are more limited compared to front door installations.
