Rear Speakers

[snoopydog12365]

Anyone know some good speakers for the 2012 Rav4 limited? I would like to keep my vehicle looking as natural as possible but I cannot find any matches for 2 way speakers. I have been looking at the Polk Audio db5251 but I dont know how I would install the tweeter. Any advice on the subject would be really helpful. Thanks!

Cartoys recommended them and I like to fade my music to the back, I just want to make sure that they would not over power the polks I am going to put in the front.

Also, I want to make sure that they fit, according to crutchfield they do not fit. I dont really want to modify my vehicle if I can help it

I have them on my 2012, they sound awesome! I also have the P165-s in the front doors, they are the component version. I also have the same brand powered subwoofer, I forgot the model number but it's the 10" one. My sound is very crisp and it also thumps pretty good.

Did you do the install your self or have somone else do it? If you did was there any special modification that you had to do to the vehicle?

Yes, I installed everything myself. I purchased some mounting brackets: 6½" 6 5 6 1 2 6 75 Toyota Lexus Speaker Mount Plates Adapters Brackets Ring | eBay , and also some weather stripping to close the small gap between the speaker and the grill on the door panel. Here are the speakers and subwoofer I purchased: Rockford Fosgate P165 Punch 6 5" Car Speaker 2 Way Pair New in Box 780687340346 | eBay , Rockford Fosgate P165 s 120 Watt 6 5" 2 Way Car Component Speaker System 6 1 2" 780687341091 | eBay , Rockford Fosgate P300 10 10" 300W SEALED Powered Subwoofer Sub Enclosure Amp Kit | eBay
I could have gotten an amp for the speakers but decided not to because my JVC HU gives them more than enough juice, it's actually too loud! I don't want to loose my hearing! Trust me you won't be sorry if you get these.

I run Polks in front and rear. DB651 in the rear though, so I didn't have to worry about the tweeters.

I had components put in front and rear. If you want tweeters in the rear doors then you must cut holes and mount the crossovers inside the doors. You will get much better sound using 6.5" speakers and an adapter plate. Rears look like this:

I am thinking of doing the install my self as well, Do you know where I can get detailed instructions on removing the front and rear door panels? Also I need a list of Tools that I will need to complete the job so that I have everything before hand.
