my docs show 2 - 6.5" fr; 2 6x9" rr for both the amplified sys & the standard sys. Are you sure it is factory? Maybe something special? I have not worked on an '02 Eclipse, so I cannot speak from experience.

Can you take it out & measure it?

I understand it has a factory 7 speaker infinity sound system

You’ve said this 3 times. You don’t have to keep repeating yourself 🙂

Can you pull the factor speaker & measure it? My WireMagic reference system does not show a factory center channel.

infinity factory sound is far from “the good shit” if you’re having to upgrade it ,must not’ve been that good. you’ll have to downsize the speaker size most likely to accomodate the new speaker’s magnet structure. sorry for the bad words on your system choice. just don’t care for “premium” systems

at this point everyone has also failed to answer the question or post a reply to having a speaker for me,thus negating any claims to being a car stereo GURU.

Now quit being a bitch & remove the old one. If not, bring it over here tomorrow evening & I will look at it. I have a keyless kit to do in Monroeville around 5:30-6pm. PM me if you need my cell #, or get it from e-man.

I think it’s an odd 3 inch speaker, I had a similar issue in my 03 Stratus (same car as the eclipse)
