2007 Chevy Aveo install?

Hi guys i need help. I just purchaced a 2007 Chevy Aveo SVM and am going to redo the enitre system HU/speakers/amp/subs. anyway i cannot find ANY credible info. Crutchfield tells me that the car has 4" speakers front and back, best but says 61/2" all around. I've been told by installs that there isn't a wiring harness made yet, Crutchfield says they have one, same with mounting kit. I'd like to know the depth of the radio, i'd like to put in a new radio that is 6.5" deep, but wanna make sure i have enough room . . . so iguess what i'm asking for is if anyone has any experience with a new Aveo? Anyone have any connections you can call and find out? I tried calling GM and they were absolutely no help, so any info at this point would be helpful . . . thanks everyone

 

cool thanks for the info. I don't have that deck, i have the single DIN am/fm no ipod attachment.

 

How about thats what i'm doing over the weekend and how about I'm trying to gather as much info I can before diving into this, and how about if you're that bored that you have to make some smart comment to someone thats trying to educate themselves you find another way to pass the time.

 

WOW way to flame everyone else in thread, well done. I'm sure they will thank you for that. Thank you to electro for being helpful, but for some reason azn thinks your thoughts are unintelligent I like how you describe measuring a speaker as "your way" like you are the first person to ever come up with the idea and as i said i am going to be doing that I was just looking for some backround info. Yes i can read a ruler, and so can you because you are reading my posts as i rule your arse! :lmfao:

PS...you lemme know how the apples are, rumor is your the expert on fruits

 

ok well this sucks any suggestions as to what to replace these with?

heres the front door




heres the back deck





back deck as it is in the car



and from top

 

ya i saw that about the front speakers too, i'm gunna go back and pull the whole assembly and take a measurement. i was hoping for something round in back because i wanted to put components back there cause they face straight up into the top of the hatch, so i was going to put the tweeter on the door of the hatch so they would fire back to the front of the car . . . azn all in good fun ^_^

 

this is what i have in mind so far. i'm going for SQL

dunno about the fronts yet. wanna do comp for sure but looking for about $100 pair. also i'm not sure about amping the the int speakers yet. The HU i have picked has surround sound decoder but have to have an amp to hook it up is it with it? does any one have surround sound? then i'd need a center speaker to put somewhere and what amp should i get if the surround sound is worth it?

 

Ya i can get those subs in dual 4ohm,

interesting idea about getting a seperate amp fro each sub. The reason i want to go with the amp sub combo i have laid out is because i designed a system for someone and used that setup and was very pleased with it. I am kicking around the seperate amp idea though. it's not all that much more money. the amps wouldn't need to work as hard, and the style points would be more too all i would have to do on that is get the 4 ohm and bridge to each amp right?

Any thoughts on the 5.1 surround though? is this something that i should really try to do? does it make a huge difference? and like i said before i would then be forced to amp out the interiors and i don't have a limitless budget.

For the doors it seems that the choice for 4" comps are slim. I'm going to take the door pannel off again and see hoe big of an opening there is if i take off the whole assembly. If i can fit 5.5s i'll have alot more options fro the doors.
