Ok so my rear top 2 speakers got stolen and I now realize I have no clue what size they were or at least what size they should be.

its a 98 vert with the mach 460. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

if they are the mach components, i believe i have the 2 small stock round speakers. if they are the ones you need, i'll hook you up.

[seco]

damn they stolled your stock speakers??!! ass holes

if it's not the ones jay is talking about, it will be 5X8's or whatever that size is, the oval ones, that are oddly shaped... i have some of those laying around somewhere, wish you had said something before i came down there...

I think they are different for the mach systems. They are 6x8 for the non mach and I have the stock ones out of my 02 that I will give you if you want them. I just need to get rid of them. I think I might actually live kind of close to you.

rob, i got stock 5x7/6x8 if you need those as well.

Both of you are wrong, Mach 460 or not they are 4x6 ovaland that also fits door speakers too as well as deck.

acording to crutchfield it says his car (98 mustang vert with mach) should use a 5x7 or 6x8 in the front door speakers.

Wow, if a circle measures 4x6 is round, my geometry skills are phucked then.

They also make adapter plates to accept larger speakers.
as per an audio catalog

The 90s
90s Mustang As we saw in the 1980s, some 'Stangs in the 90s were equipped with upgraded factory systems that have external amps. If you want the best possible sound, bypass the amps and use your new receiver's power.

In 1995, Ford introduced the Mach 460 sound system. The system features three separate amplifiers, driving a total of eight speakers. Four 4"x6" woofers located front and rear drive the bass and mid-bass, with four tweeters, also front and rear, handling the highs. Integration of new equipment into a Mach 460 system can be complicated. New receivers can be installed and connected with the use of a special adapter that allows you to continue to use the existing amps and speakers. Speaker replacement is problematic, since aftermarket 4"x6" speakers are usually full-range speakers. If you're thinking about a complete change of the in-dash receiver and speakers, it's best to rewire directly from the new receiver to the new speakers (or from an aftermarket amplifier to the new speakers).

If your Mustang doesn't have the Mach 460 system, installation is much less complicated. These cars do not have the separate woofer/tweeter speaker set-up that you'll find on the Mach 460-equipped vehicles. You can install 4"x6" speakers front and back, and plenty of aftermarket models are available that offer vastly-improved sound and a direct fit. Some Mustangs without the Mach 460 system (particularly 1996 and up models with cassette) do have amps; your options are similar to what we saw in the 1980s — purchase an adapter or bypass the amp (an easy proposition with a bypass harness.

The 21st Century
New Mustang Since 2001, the Mustang sound system has been easy to categorize — you either have a Mach 460 system, or you don't. If you've got a non-Mach car, and want to change the system, you're the lucky one! Aftermarket receivers and speakers are easy installations in these vehicles. The speaker set up is 4"x6" front and rear, and you won't have to contend with any external amps.

One common misconception among Mustang owners concerns the size of their factory receiver. Since 2001, Ford has used a large-faced (4" x 7") receiver in these vehicles — similar in size to the "Double-DIN" aftermarket receivers common in Japanese cars. Because of the way that aftermarket receivers are mounted in the dash of the Mustang, it's best to consult a professional installer before attempting this installation. The standard "DIN" size (2" x 7") aftermarket radio is easily installed with a mounting kit.

2001-and up models with the Mach 460 system are best either left alone or completely replaced, since the speaker setup is the same as in the 1995 and up models. Additionally, there are no adapters available for adding aftermarket receivers. If you don't like what you have, it's best to change the whole thing — amps and all!

Yeah... but they're not 4x6 in my 21st century car... They're 5x7/6x8... I don't think that article is quite right...

[96greengt]

Well, Mr.

Rob's car is a 98 and a vert.

But the way I read that article, it says they're the same 95 and up. And I don't see where it specifies a difference between the coupe and vert. I can logically see why there might be a difference between the two, due to size constraints, but don't see it declared in your little audio catalog. I'm just going off what you posted.

[96greengt]

I don't care any more to post, it is not really worth a good enough debate for me..

Let's go the the 4.6 tech, we can bicker there.
And that article, I merely copied and pasted.
